Via Dolorosa

Niles Borop&

Billy Sprague

Down the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem that dayThe soldiers tried to clear the narrow streetBut the crowd pressed in to seeA Man condemned to die on Calvary

1/3

He was bleeding from a beating, there were stripes upon His back

And He wore a crown of thorns upon His headAnd He bore with every stepThe scorn of those who cried out for His death

2/3

Down the Via Dolorosa called the way of sufferingLike a lamb came the Messiah, Christ the King,But He chose to walk that road out ofHis love for you and me.Down the Via Dolorosa, all the way to Calvary.

3/3

The blood that would cleanse the souls of all menMade its way through the heart of Jerusalem.
