Joy Williams Wish Lyrics

Wish Lyrics

For just a moment I wish I could have been there 
to see your first step

to 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 ways of a
capenter's son 
just a little boy gazing at the stars 
did you remember
creating every one 
if you passed by would I see 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 one 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

I wish I could have been there

Chorus

To hear you pray in the
garden alone 
laying youe 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 thatI 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 I'm gonna see you Jesus face
to face
