Via Dolorosa (Way of Suffering)
written by Billy Sprague and Niles Borop

Lyrics:
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.

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,

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,
to Calvary.
