Wish You Were Here
(A Song from the Road)
V1
Seems like a good long while
Since I left the world behind
Still I can't help but smile
Whenever your face comes to mind
I see you're longing for
The day when Christ appears
Please know, I wish that you were here
V2
I'm with the Father now
His presence soothes my heart
Yet I can tell somehow
That there is still a missing part
One day, a glad reunion
Will bring my loved ones near
Oh how I wish that you were here
Chorus
I wish you were here
To share this with me
To feel every joy, take in all of the view
We'll stroll streets of gold
Never to leave
I just can't wait to show heaven to you
What you have not seen, or heard with your ear
I wish you were here
V3
Now He prepares a place
These dwellings made of loving stone
Soon we'll be face to face
In our everlasting home
If you could see Him as I do,
It would be clear
How much I wish that you were here
(Repeat Chorus)
