Down the Via Dolorosa
In Jerusalem that day
The soldiers tried to clear
the narrow street
But the crowd pressed 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 soldados le abrian
paso a Jesus
Mas la gente se acercaba
Para ver al que llevaba
aquella cruz
*Por la Via Dolorosa que
es la via del dolor
Como oveja vino Christo,
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
