I wish I'd a seen it (yeah yeah)
I oughta been there (yeah, yeah)
When Noah parked that big, bad boat on a mountain top somewhere
When the animals walked off two by two,
And Mighty God said, "This new world's up to you" (yeah, yeah)
I wish I'd a seen it (yeah, yeah)
I wish I'd a seen it (yeah, yeah)
I oughta been there (yeah, yeah)
When Moses parted that sea so wide
And the Israelites walked to the other side
What a special sight to see
All of God's children singin', dancin' free (yeah, yeah)
I wish I'd a seen it (yeah, yeah)
Chorus:
All great stories from the Testament Old
All great stories, so they're told
They're all alive in our hearts today
Listen now brother to what I say
What a great time to be a child of God
To see old Moses stretchin' out that rod
To see him turn the water red
To hear what Pharoah said
I wish I'd a seen it (yeah, yeah)
I oughta been there (yeah, yeah)
When God told Joshua "It's time to go
And hit those horns with a mighty blow"
For seven days they walked around
And the Jericho walls came a crumblin', tumblin' down (yeah, yeah)
I wish I'd a seen it (oh yeah)
I wish I'd a seen it (yeah, yeah)
I oughta been there (yeah, yeah)
To hear King David play and sing
Droppin' that giant with a stone and sling
To see that army turn and run,
Through the power of God the battle had been won (yeah, yeah)
I wish I'd a seen it (yeah, yeah) (seen it, yeah)
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
I'd a seen it (I wish I'd seen it)
When my God spoke and the world was here
I'd a seen it (I wish I'd seen it)
When He made that fiery cloud appear
I'd a seen it (I wish I'd seen it)
What a wonderful sight to see
When the children of God would sing and shout
When the fish spit Jonah out
Repeat Chorus
I wish I'd a seen it (yeah, yeah)
I oughta been there (yeah, yeah)
Oh, I'd a seen it (yeah, yeah)
I oughta been there (yeah, yeah)
I wish I'd seen it, yeah (yeah, yeah)
Oughta been there (yeah, yeah)
To see it (yeah, yeah)
I oughta been there (yeah, yeah)
I wish I'd a seen it (Yeah!)
I wish I'd seen it
