Pôr do Sol Em Emaús
ICME - Instituto das Comunidades Missionárias de Emaús
Sunset in Emmaus
Decorated like this with the setting sun
You would simply be
A village in Israel
But there you prepared a certain table
To be sure I am
My destiny and my peace
Emmaus, Emmaus, table ready and welcoming
Strong, abundant and fertile table
Broken bread to unite hearts
Emmaus, Emmaus there the souls in pieces
Always find joy
The moment Christ breaks the bread
In my disappointments and defeats
In the bitterness of remote pains
My comfort is in you
Just remember your image
Your freshness and your breeze
Give me strength to carry on
Emmaus, Emmaus, table ready and welcoming
Strong, abundant and fertile table
Broken bread to unite hearts
Emmaus, Emmaus there the souls in pieces
Always find joy
The moment Christ breaks the bread
When dusk comes near
I want to be well prepared
To tell my lord
See, the afternoon is falling, the sun is setting
Come Jesus stay with me
And teach me to be love
Emmaus, Emmaus, table ready and welcoming
Strong, abundant and fertile table
Broken bread to unite hearts
Emmaus, Emmaus there the souls in pieces
Always find joy
The moment Christ breaks the bread
Today my soul is celebrating
There is no table like this
There is always bread to break
My soul is that village
My love the inn
Emmaus is finally me
Emmaus, Emmaus, table ready and welcoming
Strong, abundant and fertile table
Broken bread to unite hearts
Emmaus, Emmaus there the souls in pieces
Always find joy
The moment Christ breaks the bread
