EmBmCEmBmC
Down the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem that day
EmBmC
The soldiers tried to clear the narrow street
AmEm
But the crowd pressed in to see
BEmA Man condemned to die on Calvary
EmBmCEmBm
He was bleeding from a beating,
C
There were stripes upon His back
EmDC
And He wore a crown of thorns upon His head
AmEmB
And He bore with every step the scorn of those
E7
who cried out for His death
AmBEmE7
Down the Via Dolorosa called the way of suffering
AmBEmE
Like a lamb came the Messiah, Christ the King,
AmBEmBmC
But He chose to walk that road out of His love for you and me
EmBmCBEmBmC
Down the Via Dolorosa, all the way to Calvary.
BC
The blood that would cleanse the souls of all men
DBEmE
made its way through the heart of Jerusalem.
