Intro:

Em D C B
Em D C


          Em       D        C            
Down the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem that day
     Em                 D               C  
The soldiers tried to clear the narrow street
          Am                 G
But the crowd pressed in to see
    F#                B7       Em
The Man condemned to die on Calvary

Em D C 

          Em             D
He was bleeding from a beating,
              C                     
There were stripes upon His back
         Em              D              C
And He wore a crown of thorns upon His head
        Am              G         F#
And He bore with every step the scorn of those
       B7              Em  E7
who cried out for His death


Chorus:
          Am      B              Em        E7/D
Down the Via Dolorosa called the way of suffering
        Am/C             B                 Em   E7
Like a lamb came the Messiah, Christ the King,
        Am                 B               Em       D       C
But He chose to walk that road out of His love for you and me
         Em       D           C     B      Em D C
Down the Via Dolorosa, all the way to Calvary.


(Spanish)

B                                  C
The blood that would cleanse the souls of all men
          D              Ebm            Em  E7
made its way through the heart of Jerusalem.

Em D C B    Em D C 
Ooohh……     Ooohhh
