Wish Lyrics by Brian Littrell

Welcome Home

2006

[Verse 1: 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
Did you remember creating every one?

[Pre-Chorus 1: Brian Littrell]
If you passed by
Would I have seen a child or a King?
Would I have known?

[Chorus: Brian Littrell]
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

[Verse 2: Brian Littrell]
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

[Pre-Chorus 2: Brian Littrell]
To see you feed the people
To feel your healing in your touch

[Chorus: Brian Littrell]
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

[Bridge: Brian Littrell]
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've been there
You took my cross and gave your life
(And you live again)
Oh, and you live again!

[Chorus: Brian Littrell]
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

[Outro: Brian Littrell]
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
