Laura Bretan – Via Dolorosa

Via Dolorosa

Verse 1:
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

Chorus:
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

Verse 2:
Jos in Via Dolorosa, in Ierusalim odat’
Soldatii strada ingusta, o pazeau
Dar multimea dorea sa-l vada
Pe cel ce e la moarte condamnat

Jos in via dolorosa
Este-al suferintei drum
Ca un miel mergea Mesia Regele
Si-a ales drumul acest’
Din dragoste
Pentru min’ si tin’
Jos in Via Dolorosa, este drumul de dureri

Bridge:
The blood that would cleanse
The souls of all men, made its way to the heart
Of Jerusalem!

Chorus:
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
