Wish

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 
Learnin' the ways of a carpenter's son 
Just a little boy gazing at the stars 
But you remember creating everyone 
If you passed by would I have seen a child or a king? 
Would I have known? 

I wish I could have been there 
My only wish is to see you face to face 
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 
You left your footprints upon the waves 
To walk along beside you and never look away 
Just your whisper and the wind and sea obey 
To see you feed the people 
To feel your healing in your touch 

I wish I could have been there 
My only wish is to see you face to face 
Wish I could have been there 
Just to see you Jesus face to face 

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 (and you live again) 
Oh, and you live again 

I wish I could have been there 
My only wish is to see you rise again 
Wish I could have been there 
My only wish to see you Jesus face to face 

Someday I'll be there, I'm gonna be there 
I'll see your face, your mercy, your grace 
Someday, Someday 
I'm gonna see you Jesus face to face
