Parody of "I Wish" performed and written by Stevie Wonder
(Matthew 1:18-2:23, Luke 1:26-2:40, Acts 1:6-11)
Lookin' back on when Christ was a little Nazareth-headed boy
When the snowy flurries come for Christmas that will be my joy
In the snow we sometimes will forget something
He's no longer little - that boy's the King of Kings
Please get out the black book
To find out what they put 'bout Christmastide - ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Seems the first two chapters
Of only Matthew and Luke's Gospels show that side
Christ's already changed the water to the wine
In John's second chapter -- don't get too far behind
That Christmas babe could come back once more
One of these days - and - how very fast He's grown
That Christmas babe could come back once more
One of these days - and - I'm very glad to know
'Cause I love Him so
Doo-doo doo-doo doo -- doo doo doo doo doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo doo-doo doo - doo doo doo-doo-doo
Brother let me tell you
Cause you're plainly not some witless churl
Just can't go around doing anything you want in this whole wide world
Father gives His Son as - you learned in Sunday school
Don't trade Him for Santa - after church is through
He spoke of resurrection
Frightened them so much they planned His fall (We must destroy!)
He was sentenced to death
No principle offense was found at all
He rose up, returned for - 40 days and nights
But when He was through with that He rose up out of sight
That Christmas babe could come back once more
One of these days - and - verify He's grown
That Christmas babe could come back once more
One of these days - and - very fast, you know
Acts 1:11
They also said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This
Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the same
way as you have watched Him go into heaven."
