Via Dolorosa

Down the Via Dolorosa
In Jerusalem that day
The soldiers tried to clear the narrow street
But the crowd pressed in to see
A man condemned to die on Calvary

He was bleeding from a 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
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

Por la Via Dolorosa
Triste dia en Jerusalem
Los alados le abran paso a Jesus
Mas la gente se acercaba
Para ver a que llevaba aquella cruz

Por la Via Dolorosa
Que es la Via del dolor
Como veo vino Cristo Rey, Senor
Y fue El quien quiso ir
Por su amor por ti y por mi
Por la Via Dolorosa
Al Calvario y a morir

The blood that would cleanse
The souls of all men
Made its way through the heart
Of Jerusalem

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
