Down the Via Dolorosa & The Passion of Christ

(Music video and lyrics of Via Dolorosa by Sandi Patti, Music video Scenes from Passion of Christ by Mel Gibson)

When i searched for this piece of song cuz i sang it in choir before and to my delight, it came together with this heart-aching yet touching movie (in video clip) that for once, it shook the whole world. It reminded we people that He had died for us all. Once and for all. I am not ashame to admit that i cried together with my other friends in the cinema watching this movie. I was and am very thankful for the grace of God for not forsaking me when i was deep down in the valley endless of times.

I
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

II
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.

III
Por la Via Dolorosa, triste dia en Jerusalem
Los saldados le abrian paso a Hesus
Mas la gente se acercaba
Para ver al que llevaba aquella cruz

IV
Por la Via Dolorosa, que es la via del dolor
Como oveja vino Cristo, Rey, Senor
Y fue El quien quiso ir por su amor por ti y por mi
Por la Via Dolorosa al calvario ya morir

Bridge:
The blood that would cleanse the souls of all men
Made its way through the heart of Jerusalem.
Coda:
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.
