Why didn't We Recognize?
The day before yesterday,
They crucified my Lord;
Beat Him unmercif'lly and nailed Him
to a tree.
The sky grew dark and the earth
began to fog,
People cried, "surely we've crucified
the Son of God."
Why didn't we recognize
the Mighty God was here today,
Didn't our hearts burn as He/Jesus
talked along the way?
Shouldn't we have known,
Shouldn't we have known?
Wish we had known Him
Before the Lord has come and gone.
Today a friend and I walked down
the road,
Didn't know our Lord had arose.
A man drew near and spoke words
so wise,
Broke the bread and blessed it,
And instant opened up our eyes.
I'm so glad I recognize the Son of Man
appeared today,
Don't our hearts burn as He talks
along the way;
Are you glad you know,
Are you glad you know?
I'm so glad I know Him,
Should He come, I will be gone.
