Em D C B
Down the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem that day
Em D C
The soldiers tried to clear the narrow street
Am Em
But the crowd pressed in to see
B Em
A Man condemned to die on Calvary
Em D
He was bleeding from a beating,
C G
There were stripes upon His back
Em D C
And He wore a crown of thorns upon His head
Am Em B
And He bore with every step the scorn of those
Em E7
who cried out for His death
Am B Em E7
Down the Via Dolorosa called the way of suffering
Am B Em E7
Like a lamb came the Messiah, Christ the King,
Am B Em G C
But He chose to walk that road out of His love for you and me
Em D C B Em
Down the Via Dolorosa, all the way to Calvary.
B Em
The blood that would cleanse the souls of all men
B Em E7
made its way through the heart of Jerusalem.
