-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.
-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.
-''Chorus:''
-Oh, dearly, dearly has He loved and we must love Him too;
-and trust in His redeeming blood and try His works to do.
