I Wish I Could Have Been There lyrics

Well, a woman was healed
When she touched the hem of His clothes
That's just one of the 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, really wish
(Oh, I really, I really wish)
I could have been there
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, really wish
(Oh, I really, I really wish)
I could have been there
Could have been there
