Emmaus Road

 

Emmaus Road

Oh, to have been on the Emmaus Road,

And to have heard the things, the two were told.

How I would love, to travel back in time,

To walk on that dusty road by Your side.

Oh, what a blessing it would be,

To hear You explaining the Scriptures to me.

I'm sure that my heart too, would burn,

With overflowing joy, at the truth, I would learn.

Oh, what a sweet mystery it is,

That all of life, and history are His.

How I would love, to hear from His lips,

Precious truths from the One, whom angels worship.

Oh, my King, that my eyes would be opened,

To understand all, the wonderful words You have spoken.

How I would love, to be on that Emmaus Road with You,

Just walking and talking, and hearing Your truth.

Oh, to be in Your precious company,

To be by Your side, for an hour, or three.

I know my soul, would leap for joy within me,

Longing to walk with You eternally.
