Crystal Lewis; Steven Curtis Chapman - I Wanted All That for You Lyrics
JOSEPH: We've come so many miles
Through steep hills and valleys
We've had to stop again and again
But I hoped that we would find
A place of rest and comfort
Warm shelter when we came to
the end

The way I thought that it would be
Is God would make your
pathway smooth
Our steps together would be easy
I wanted that for you

The way I thought that it would be
Is God would take all pain away
Our lives would happen perfectly
I wanted that for you
Oh, I wanted all that for you

MARY: I know I've been a burden
You've been patient and kind
And lovingly devoted as any man
could be
You might have made this journey
Far easier and faster
If not for the times you had to
carry me

MARY & JOSEPH: The way I thought
that it would be
Is God would make our
pathway smooth
Our steps together would be easy
I wanted that for you

The way I thought that it would be
Is God would take all pain away
Our lives would happen perfectly
I wanted that for you
Oh, I wanted all that for you

JOSEPH: The call of God comes with
a price
That's more than fine with me

MARY: For the glory of the Lord
upon us
Is far greater than we can see

JOSEPH: Is there anyplace
more humble
Than where we are standing
And now I wonder how can this
be right

MARY: Yet my spirit and my
soul confirm
The Child of God's Promise
Will be born in this very
place tonight

MARY & JOSEPH: The way I thought
that it would be
Is God would make His
pathway smooth
His steps on earth would be easy
I wanted that for you
The way I thought that it would be
Is God would take His pain away
His life would happen perfectly
I wanted that for you
Oh, I wanted that for you
Precious Child
Oh, I wanted at that for You
For You
