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
|
Did 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, oh
|
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 going to see you, jesus
|
face to face
|
