Via Dolorosa Lyrics

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.
