Bryan & Katie Torwalt - Wouldn’t It Be Like You

Chorus / Description : Wouldn’t it be like You
To be different than we thought
Different than we want
But better
You’re better
Wouldn’t it be like You
To be different than we thought
Different than we want
But better
You’re better

Wouldn’t It Be Like You Lyrics

Thought I had You figured out
So sure I knew exactly how You?d move
Thought my Savior was coming with a sword in His hand
To my surprise, He came as a child

Wouldn?t it be like You
To be different than we thought
Different than we want
But better
You?re better
Wouldn?t it be like You
To be different than we thought
Different than we want
But better
You?re better

They left my savior in a tomb
Hope was lost and the doubt was breaking through
When You broke the bread
I saw the holes in Your hands
How did I not see, Son of God yet Son of Man

He?s better
He?s better
You?re better
You?re better

Help me be like Mary
Laid down, pouring out
I won?t miss You in a crowd
Cause I love Your voice
And I know the sound
Jesus if it?s You
On the water, in the cloud
I?ll be the first one to walk out
Cause I love Your voice
And I know the sound

Hold on
Don?t grow tired
Don?t give up
He?s Better

Wouldn?t It Be Like You Song Story

?'Wouldn?t It Be Like You' was written after a lot of conversations and a deep dive into the Gospels. We were amazed at how often people either completely missed Jesus, or expected Him to be different than He was. He didn?t fit the religious leaders? narrative for what the Messiah should look like and even His disciples, who were convinced that He was the Messiah, expected Him to take up arms and lead a revolution.

"Instead, He healed the sick, set people free, spent time with the outcasts, welcomed the children, ate with the tax collectors, and in the ultimate shock; He died and then rose from the dead! His Kingdom looked different than they expected, and even different than they wanted it to be at times, but in the end, so much better." - Katie & Bryan Torwalt
