Wish Lyrics - Welcome Home - Brian Littrell

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 ways of a carpenter's son 

Just a little boy gazing at the stars 

But You remember creating every one 

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 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, and You live again 

Wish I could have been there 

My only wish is to see You rise again 

Wish I could have been there 

My only wish is 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
