I Wish It So is the beautiful surviving tune from Marc Blitzstein's unsuccessful 1959 musical Juno, based on Sean O'Casey's play Juno and the Paycock.
There's a beautiful rendition of the original by Dawn Upshaw, but I haven't tried to preserve that harmony.

If anyone wants a copy of Blitzstein's original piano score, send me a PM and I'll email it to you in a PDF.
Meanwhile, I've rearranged the tune with jazz changes and cut the intro and outro.
The score for my arrangement is at https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ur4OSh9Vl_Pxlw95QDrSl6WEw0XtvF2_/view.
I Wish It So-Rev JE - Marc Blitzstein
Cheers,
