According to the docs Wrap() uses the OS line separator which is different on Unix/Mac and Windows. That might cause an issue because for unix it only looks for \n but on windows it is probably looking for a \r\n.
So if you are on windows, and your example text only used \n to break lines, then it would produce the results you got. Try passing a true into the third argument to strip out existing new line chars, or you might need to find / write a UDF if you want to preserve existing line breaks.
