“Wishful Thinking” Lyrics
Lord is it possible to get this far
And just now understand who You are?
I'm feeling foolish yet relieved as well
Cuz what I bought before, I just can’t sell
But now my eyes are open wide
If this is wrong
I don’t wanna be right
Could it be that on my worst day
How You love me still will not change
What if it’s really not about
What I do but what you did, oh what if
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
Well, I guess I’m better late than not at all
Or did you plan it this way all along
Cuz without suffering grace is hard to see
So maybe I’m right where I’m supposed to be
And now, I'm seeing You so differently
And only I can say is finally
Could it be that on my worst day
How you love me simply will not change
What if it’s really not about
What I do but what you did, oh what if
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
It’s just how it is
But now my eyes are open wide
If this is wrong Lord do not make me, don't you make me right
Now I know that on my worst day
The way you love me it ain’t never change
It’s never really been about what I do but what you did
Yes it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
And just now understand who You are?
I'm feeling foolish yet relieved as well
Cuz what I bought before, I just can’t sell
But now my eyes are open wide
If this is wrong
I don’t wanna be right
Could it be that on my worst day
How You love me still will not change
What if it’s really not about
What I do but what you did, oh what if
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
Well, I guess I’m better late than not at all
Or did you plan it this way all along
Cuz without suffering grace is hard to see
So maybe I’m right where I’m supposed to be
And now, I'm seeing You so differently
And only I can say is finally
Could it be that on my worst day
How you love me simply will not change
What if it’s really not about
What I do but what you did, oh what if
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
It’s just how it is
But now my eyes are open wide
If this is wrong Lord do not make me, don't you make me right
Now I know that on my worst day
The way you love me it ain’t never change
It’s never really been about what I do but what you did
Yes it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
