-There is a green hill far away,
-Without a city wall,
-Where the dear Lord was crucified
-Who died to save us all.
-We may not know, we cannot tell,
-What pains He had to bear,
-But we believe it was for us
-He hung and suffered there.
-O dearly, dearly has He loved!
-And we must love Him too,
-And trust in His redeeming blood,
-And try His works to do.
-He died that we might be forgiven,
-He died to make us good,
-That we might go at last to Heaven,
-Saved by His precious blood.
-There was no other good enough
-To pay the price of sin,
-He only could unlock the gate
-Of Heaven and let us in.
