Lyrics
On the road to Emmaus the two of us walked, as a stranger joined us in the way
He seemed not to know about the death of Christ or the rumors of His empty tomb today
In our sorrow, he began to speak. He said ?You fools, your unbelief does show?
He spoke of scripture that explained about Christ, from Moses and the prophets long ago
Late in the day we sat down to eat, as he blessed the bread our eyes opened wide
This was no stranger, it was Jesus our Lord, then He vanished out of our sight
Chorus:
DIDN?T OUR HEARTS BURN WITHIN US, AS WE WALKED ALONG THE WAY
AS FOR ME THE WORDS OF JESUS, PIERCED MY HEART AND SOUL TODAY
I sat in church one Sunday morn, we prayed and then sang a hymn
The preacher spoke from God?s Holy Word, about how Christ died for our sins
Chorus:
DIDN?T OUR HEARTS BURN WITHIN US, AS THE CONGREGATION PRAYED
AS FOR ME THE WORDS OF JESUS, PIERCED MY HEART AND SOUL TODAY
Bridge:
The Word of God made it very clear, what it meant to be saved
I accepted Christ as my savior today, The Truth The Life and The Way
Chorus:
DIDN?T OUR HEARTS BURN WITHIN US, AS WE KNELT DOWN TO PRAY
AS FOR ME THE WORDS OF JESUS, PIERCED MY HEART AND SOUL TODAY
They pierced my heart and soul today
Didn't our hearts burn today?
