Walking beside you

Like the unnamed disciple
on the road to Emmaus
hearing the gospel story
from the mouth of Christ

walking beside you
sharing the yoke
joy fills me
with Jesus in my heart

Thank you Jesus
for choosing to love me
for saving me from death
while I yet sin

guiding me forward
to the joy You promise
lead me to paths
of love and righteousness.
