Verse 1:
We met him on the road; some how he seemed familiar, I can’t even recall if we asked his name. The stranger asked us why we were fleeing from the city; We said you surely know what’s happened there these past few days. Our friend and master, Jesus Christ, The son of Joseph, the carpenter, Who healed the blind and raised the dead was crucified.
Verse 2:
We stopped along the road. At Emmaus for some lodging; We asked if he would come and join us, and He said he would. He took the bread as custom and then our eyes were opened; He raised the cup and then we knew it was our Lord. Our friend and master, Jesus Christ, The son of Joseph the carpenter, Who healed the blind and raised the dead, the crucified.
Bridge:
Risen, just as He said, in three days just as he said, Risen alive, risen alive, risen alive…
Chorus:
Are not our hearts burning inside? Are not our hearts burning inside? Are not our hearts burning inside as he walks by our side? Are not our hearts burning inside? Are not our hearts burning inside? Are not our hearts burning inside as he walks by our side?
