I Wish I Could Have Been There
by The Perrys

Album: Celebrate Me Home


Well a woman was healed when she touched the hem of His clothes
That's just one of those stories that everybody knows
Oh I know the facts but I'd love to feel
what the blind man felt when his eyes were healed
He went running through the streets to share

I wish I could have been there
When the thousands were fed with just two fish and some bread and see the little boy a packin' up the rest
I wish I could have been there
To see the lame that could leap and hear the dumb that could speak and see the multitudes of people Jesus blessed
I wish I could have seen the stone that went a rollin' away when they looked inside the door to where the grave clothes lay
I didn't see but I believe that He ascended in the air
And I really wish I could have been there

When He commanded Lazarus to walk right out of His grave
And in a Galilean storm He started calming the waves
I wanna feel that breeze blowing on my face
I wanna know the smell I wanna taste the taste
Just reading 'bout it couldn't compare

I wish I could have been there
When the thousands were fed with just two fish and some bread and see the little boy a packin' up the rest
I wish I could have been there
To see the lame that could leap and hear the dumb that could speak and see the multitudes of people Jesus blessed
I wish I could have seen the stone that went a rollin' away when they looked inside the door to where the grave clothes lay
I didn't see but I believe that He ascended in the air
And I really wish I could have been there

I wish I could have been there
When the thousands were fed with just two fish and some bread and see the little boy a packin' up the rest
I wish I could have been there
To see the lame that could leap and hear the dumb that could speak and see the multitudes of people Jesus blessed
I wish I could have seen the stone that went a rollin' away when they looked inside the door to where the grave clothes lay
I didn't see but I believe that He ascended in the air
And I really wish I could have been there
I didn't see but I believe that He ascended in the air
And I really wish I could have been there

I wish I could have been there
When the thousands were fed with just two fish and some bread and see the little boy a packin' up the rest
I wish I could have been there
To see the lame that could leap and hear the dumb that could speak and see the multitudes of people Jesus blessed
I wish I could have seen the stone that went a rollin' away when they looked inside the door to where the grave clothes lay
I didn't see but I believe that He ascended in the air
And I really wish I could have been there
I didn't see but I believe that He ascended in the air
And I really wish I could have been there
