Joy Williams Album: By Surprise Track: Wish Wish Lyrics Words and Music by Rob Graves, Jason McArthur and Joy Williams For just a moment I wish I could have been there To see Your first step, hear Your very first word Tell me, did You ever fall and scrape Your knee? Did You know Your wounds would one day heal the world? For just one moment I wish I could have seen You growing Learning the way of a carpenter's son Just a little boy gazing at the stars Did You remember creating every one? If You passed by, would I have seen a child or a King? Or would I have known? CHORUS I wish I could have been there My only wish is to see You face to face I wish I could have been there Just to see You, Jesus, face to face For just a moment I wish I could have been there When You left Your footprints upon the waves To walk along beside You, never look away Just Your whisper and the wind and sea obey To see You feed the people To feel the healing in Your touch CHORUS To hear You pray in the garden alone Laying down Your will with each tear To see You walk that lonely road Willing to die for me And in that moment I know I should have been there You took my cross and gave Your life But You live again! I wish I could have been there I wish I could have seen You rise again I wish I could have been there My only wish is to see You face to face Someday I'll be there, I'm gonna be there I'll see Your face, Your mercy and grace Someday, someday Someday I'll see You, my Jesus Face to face © 2002 Logansong Music / BMI / WonderWhyMusic.com / ASCAP / New Spring Publishing, Inc.
