Hello, Yesterday in church a visitor sang a beautiful song that I am sure I have heard before but it has been a long time. I believe it was called "Via Della Rosa" but i'm not sure and I am having no luck finding the lyrics on the internet. If anyone knows where/how I may find the lyrics or if by chance that isn't the title and you know what it is ~ I would be SO GRATEFUL for the help. Thank You! Jen

Sandy Patty recorded Via Delarosa. There is one verse in spanish.
the chorus goes
Down the Via Delarose, called the way of suffering, walked a man called the Messiah, Christ the King. Yet he chose to walk this road out of his love for you and me. Down the Via Delarosa called the way of suffering. I have the rest of the words at church on a accompaniment track, I'll try to remember to get them for you if no one else answers.

Down the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem that day
The soldiers tried to clear the narrow street
But the crowd pressed in to see
A 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 through 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.

As Carolla said, Sandi Patti recorded this many years ago. I personally like this recording:

God bless!

I too heard this song during a Good Friday message more than 15 years ago, I didn't understand all the words (spanish) but my heart did!
The Sandi Patti version as far as I am concerned is the only version. It is like the heavens open up and a choir of Angels are singing.This song became our family anthem, my kids were young then, now they are 18 and 20, and they still are moved by the Via Della Rosa.
I remember sitting watching tv the following Easter and there on tv was the music video, there was Sandi walking the road of Calvary as she sang, I looked around everyone was gone (no cell phones then), no one to share it with, so I sat back enjoyed. A gift from the Lord.
