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
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 for 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
The road of suffering will
soon end on that hill
and his body will be
nailed upon the cross
but Jesus died in our place
so that our sins can be washed away
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
The blood that would cleanse
the souls of all men
Made its way to 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
