Hear from Leeland how the song "Via Dolorosa" was created with producer Ed Cash.

Attention worship leaders and musicians! WorshipTogether.com is featuring "My Jesus" as their free song of the week along with "Follow You" and "Holy Spirit Have Your Way." Also, you can watch the "My Jesus" New Song Cafe video where Leeland and Jack talk about the inspiration behind the song, perform it, and teach you how to play it, too!

"I wanted to write a song about the cross-Jesus coming down and what He did on the cross, about how He became a man, and how humbling that was, and how awesome it was for us that He did. When I brought the unfinished song to Ed [Cash, producer] and Jack, Ed said, 'I've always wanted to write a song about the Via Dolorosa. It's always been one of my biggest passions. But I've never had the right idea. What if we have this song not only talking about the cross, but talking about the road of suffering that Jesus walked on?' So we got so deep into it that we started pulling up pictures of the Via Dolorosa and clips of the The Passion of The Christ. We were praying and reading different scriptures about Jesus being beaten and bruised and walking down the road." -Leeland
