Via Dolorosa

Jesus made the hardest and longest journey when He was led to be hung on the cross for you and I. He bore our sins on the cross of Calvary. The inexpressible pain, anguish and agony cannot be put into words. His crimson blood was shed because He loved us so deeply. We do not deserve all that Jesus suffered on our behalf. As we remember the greatest act of love the world has ever known, our hearts are overwhelmed by a merciful and loving Saviour.

Via Dolorosa
Down the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem that day
The soldiers tried to clear the narrow street
But the crowd pressed in to see
The 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 through 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.
