Wish I Could’ve Been There

VRS1
As he walked along the seashore and through the city street
He listened to the problems of the people he would meet
There were blinded eyes crippled feet sickness in the land
When he came to those who had a need he touched them with his hand
As he preached there on the hill side the people came to him
They stayed til they were hungry and he fed all of them
When he blessed the little loaves and fish and broke them all apart
They gathered up a whole lot more than they had from the start

CH
Wish I could’ve been there when he told the raging sea peace be still
Wish I could’ve been there when he fed the multitude til they were filled
Wish I could’ve been there when he healed the sick and raised the dead
And little crippled kids could run and play
What a joy that would be what a sight for eyes to see
Wish I could’ve been there

VRS2
As the Roman soldiers drove the nails into his hands and feet
And the angels waited for the word to come and set him free
When he looked away and prayed and asked the Father to forgive
Then he gave his life a sacrifice so you and I could live
As the people gathered round him it would be the final day
Cause his work on earth was over and he had to go away
But even death could never hold him down he proved it then and there
He said I’m coming back just look for me as he went through the air

CH
Wish I could’ve been there when he told the raging sea peace be still
Wish I could’ve been there when he fed the multitude til they were filled
Wish I could’ve been there when he healed the sick and raised the dead
And little crippled kids could run and play
What a joy that would be what a sight for eyes to see


TAG
Wish I could’ve been there
Wish I could’ve been there
Wish I could’ve been there
