A Morrer Crucificado (Via Sacra) — Lyrics
A morrer crucificado,
teu Jesus é condenado,
por teus crimes, pecador.
Pela Virgem dolorosa,
Vossa Mãe tão piedosa,
perdoaime bom Jesus.
Com a cruz é carregado
E do peso acabrunhado
Vai morrer por teu amor.
Pela cruz tão oprimido
Cai Jesus desfalecido
Pela tua salvação.
De Maria lacrimosa
Sua mãe tão dolorosa
Vê a imensa comoção.
Em extremo desmaiado,
Deve auxílio, tão cansado,
Receber do Cireneu.

The harmonic language is direct and expressive, making it accessible for choirs seeking to communicate the profound narrative of the Stations of the Cross.
