Via Dolorosa - Way of Sorrow


I attended the #Good Friday service and heard this beautiful hymn: the #sorrowful journey down the street called Via Dolorosa in Old Jerusalem.
J'ai assisté à la messe du Vendredi saint et j'ai entendu ce magnifique hymne : le douloureux voyage sur la Via Dolorosa, dans le vieux Jérusalem.

Via Dolorosa, which means "Way of Sorrow," is the route tracing Jesus’s final walk in the streets of old Jerusalem. The route He took from his trial and condemnation by Pilate to his crucifixion at Calvary, and marked by fourteen Stations of the Cross, commemorating his suffering, falls, and burial, forms a key Christian pilgrimage suffered by the Lord Jesus on Good Friday.

La Via Dolorosa, qui signifie « Chemin de la Douleur », est l'itinéraire qui retrace le dernier pas de Jésus dans les rues de la vieille Jérusalem. Le chemin qu'il a emprunté depuis son procès et sa condamnation par Pilate jusqu'à sa crucifixion au Calvaire, et jalonné de quatorze stations du Chemin de Croix commémorant ses souffrances, ses chutes et son enterrement, constitue un pèlerinage chrétien essentiel accompli par le Seigneur Jésus le Vendredi sain



Via Dolorosa Lyrics.

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.

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

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 y a morir

The blood that would cleanse the souls of all men
Made its way to 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.
