1- Down the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem that day,
The soldiers tried to clear the narrow streets,
but the crowd pressed in to see
the Man condemned to die on Calvary.
2- He was bleeding from the beating, there were stripes upon his back,
And He wore a crown of thorns upon His head,
He bore with every step
The scorn for those who cried out for his death.
3- Down the Via Dolorosa called the way of suffering,
Like a lamb came the Messiah…Christ the King!
But he chose to walk that road out of his love for you and me.
Down the Via Dolorosa all the way to Calvary.
4- The blood that would cleanse the souls of all men,
Made its way through the heart
Of Jerusalem!
He walked that road for YOU and ME…to Calvary.
