Via Dolorosa Lyrics

Down the Vía Dolorosa in Jerusalem that day The soldiers tried to clear the narrow streets But a crowd pressed in to see A Man condemned to die on Calvary

He was bleeding from that 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 cry out for His death

Chorus: Down the Vía Dolorosa called the way of suffering Like a lamb came the Messiah, Christ the King And He chose to walk that road Out of His love for you and me (for you, for me) Down the Vía Dolorosa all the way to Calvary (all the way to Calvary)

Por la Vía Dolorosa, Triste día en Jerusalén Los saldádos le abrían paso a Jesús Mas la gente se acercaba Para ver al que llevaba aquella cruz

El sengraba por la espalda cruel castigo recibió Fue de espinas la corona que llevó Y sufrió más al saber Que su muerte esa gente ibe a pedir
Por la Vía Dolorosa que es la vía del dolor Como oveja vino Cristo, Rey, Señor Y fue él quien quiso ir Por su amor por ti y por mí (for you, for me) Por la Vía Dolorosa al Calvario y a morir (all the way to Calvary)

The blood that will cleanse the souls of all men made its way through the heart of Jerusalem (oh, the blood, cleanse the souls, made its way through the heart of Jerusalem)

Repeat Chorus

All the way to Calvary

Scriptural Reference:

"As they led him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus. A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned and wailed for him." Luke 23:26-27
