Via Dolorosa - Libitina

Now we see with jaundiced eyes

Yes, we’ve come to realise

All we have given we have lost

The rest we have kept at too great a cost

We have walked our via dolorosa

Borne our crosses

Suffered your taunts

The payback for your scorn grows closer…

Why should we who have seen Golgotha

Take the hands you pleadingly proffer?

Now we see with jaundiced eyes

Yes, we’ve come to realise

All we have given we have lost

The rest we have kept at too great a cost

Then the pain of your whip our lips did sing

And it did seem the end of everything

But we have licked our wounds

Bided our time

And soon we’ll return a payment in kind

Now we see with jaundiced eyes

Yes, we’ve come to realise

All we have given we have lost

The rest we have kept at too great a cost

Like the phoenix

Fiery we rise

As Lazarus from the grave

So we live again

Returned from Hades

We won’t look back

What does not kill us makes us stronger

And you cannot harm us any longer
