THERE IS A GREEN HILL FAR AWAY
1. There is a green
hill far away,
Outside a city
wall,
Where the dear Lord
was crucified,
Who died to save us
all.
Refrain
O dearly dearly has
He loved,
And we must love
Him too;
And trust in His
redeeming blood,
And try His works
to do.
2. 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.
3. He died that we
might be forgiv'n,
He died to make us
good,
That we might go at
last to heav'n,
Saved by His
precious blood.
4. There was no
other good enough
To pay the price of
sin;
He only could
unlock the gate
Of heav'n and let
us in.
