On the Road and at the (Uplifting Christian)
Lyrics
Verse 1
Two travelers left Jerusalem
With dust along their sleeves
The hill behind had taken hope
From everything they believed
They spoke of nails and broken bread
Of promises laid low
While evening gathered on the road
And neither knew the One who walked below
Verse 2
He asked them why their hearts were low
They told the story plain
The prophet mighty in the word
Had suffered shame and pain
Then from the law and prophets' pages
He traced the mercy's thread
How every promise pointed on
Through wounded hands and living breath
Chorus
Stay with us, the day is fading
Stay with us, our hearts are waking
In the breaking of the bread
Hope was standing where death had been
Stay with us, our eyes are opening
Christ is risen, Christ is near
On the road, through every sorrow
You are walking with us here
Verse 3
They reached the village as the dusk
Turned purple over stone
He moved as though He would go on
But they would not dine alone
They set the loaf before Him there
He blessed it, broke, and gave
Their eyes were opened in that room
And joy stood shining from the grave
Bridge
Were not our hearts a burning lamp
While He unfolded grace?
The Scriptures sang of sacrifice
And mercy took a face
So they returned beneath the stars
To tell what they had seen
The crucified, the living Lord
Had met them on the road between
Chorus
Stay with us, the day is fading
Stay with us, our hearts are waking
In the breaking of the bread
Hope was standing where death had been
Stay with us, our eyes are opening
Christ is risen, Christ is near
On the road, through every sorrow
You are walking with us here
Final Chorus
Stay with us, our hearts are singing
Stay with us, the bells are ringing
In the breaking of the bread
Love has conquered fear and death
Stay with us, our eyes are opening
Christ is risen, Christ is here
On the road and at the table
You will walk with us through every year
Outro
On the road and at the table
You will walk with us through every year
