Oh To Wish
Something I wrote down in my journal last year was popping up in my mind today. Thought I’d share.
Oh how I wish, I could have been there
Walking with Christ in Galilee
To see Him walk and talk and teach
Oh how I wish I had glimpsed Him there
To see Him bless and mend and feed
To see the dead rise
To see Him baptized
Oh to see Him break bread
To be so lucky, to touch His hem
To watch Him ride upon the frawns
To hear Him praying until dawn
Oh to wish to be there
To wish or dream of days gone by
Can be good here or there
But to lose one’s self
Or long to to stay
Can cause your soul to wear
Faith in God is faith in now
That He will guide you through
Whether sea or forest
Or darkness veil
Believe when blind or deaf or mute
For faith is what prevails
But yet God wishes too
The God of all
The creator the judge
Beginning and end of it All
Of all the things He could have or create
What could God desire
Oh how He wishes to glimpse us repent
To grow and learn of Him
Oh how He wishes, to walk with us
In all places that we may be in
Oh how He wishes and wants and prays
That we Invite Him throughout our day
He has done more than wish
He teaches, commands
He has engraven us upon the palms of His hands
Oh how He wishes and wants and pleads
That we come home to mansions prepared
The Savior has been born
He lived
He died
The Messiah beat death and rose
All of this, because of His wish
That all may be saved through Him
Oh while I wish, to go back and see
My Savior doth plead with me
Be here, of good cheer, for I am with thee
Open your soul and see
For I AM On your right
and on your left
While you work,
and live
and laugh
and cry
I am with thee, oh child of Eve
For I will never forsake thee
Oh how I wish, and hope, and pray
that I will remember
His life
His love
His grace
But above all else
Oh how I wish to be with Him
Even half as much
as Christ wants me with Him
