1 As we walk along beside you,
and we hear you speak of mercy,
then it seems our hearts are burning,
for we find you in the sharing of the word.
2 As we ask that you stay with us,
and we watch what you are doing,
then our eyes begin to open,
for we see you in the breaking of the bread.
3 As we reach for you believing,
and we go to love and serve you,
then our lives will be proclaiming
that we know you in your rising from the dead.
Lord, alleluia! Scripture: Luke 24:13-35 Used With Tune: BURNING HEART
