Fica Conosco, Senhor
Pe. João Carlos
Stay with Us, Lord
They were walking, so sad
From Jerusalem to Emmaus
The two followers of Christ
Shortly after the episode of the cross
While they are talking like this
Jesus approached slowly
What are you discussing?
And they could not see the Lord
Stay with us, Lord
It's late and night is coming
Stay with us, Lord
We are also Your followers
Do you not know then, stranger
What happened?
Jesus the Nazarene was arrested
The Redeemer awaited by Israel
The leaders plotted His death
Of the Holy Prophet of God
The righteous one was crucified
The hope of the people died
Stay with us, Lord
It's late and night is coming
Stay with us, Lord
We are also Your followers
Three days finally passed
It was all a sweet illusion
A scare, the women spread
They did not find His body anymore
They said He is alive
That they knew in a vision
The tomb was empty
But no one knows about the Master
Stay with us, Lord
It's late and night is coming
Stay with us, Lord
We are also Your followers
Jesus then reminded
To enter Christ in glory
Prophets had already spoken
He had to face sufferings
And along the way
Their hearts burned
He spoke to them about the scriptures
Explaining His mission
Stay with us, Lord
It's late and night is coming
Stay with us, Lord
We are also Your followers
Finally arriving at the destination
Jesus pretended to go on
But they insisted too much
Come, Lord, come stay with us
Sitting with them at the table
He gave thanks and broke the bread
The surprise was so great for the two
Jesus Christ, the Lord, had risen
Stay with us, Lord
It's late and night is coming
Stay with us, Lord
We are also Your followers
Stay with us, Lord
It's late and night is coming
Stay with us, Lord
We are also Your followers
