Down the Via Dolorosa
In Jerusalem that day
The soldiers tried
To clear the narrow street
But the crowd pressed in to see
The Man condemned to die
on Calvary
He was bleeding from the beating
There were stripes upon His back
And He wore a crown of thorns
Upon His head
And He bore with every step
The scorn of those who cried out
For His death
Down the Via Dolorosa
Called the “Way of Suffering”
But He chose to walk that road
Out of His love for you and me
Down the Via Dolorosa
All the way to Calvary
Like a lamb came the Messiah
Christ the King
The blood that would cleanse
The souls of all men
Made its way to the heart
Of Jerusalem
