    Song is called -There is a green hill far away.

    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.

    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.

    Refrain

    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.

    Refrain

    There was no other good enough

    To pay the price of sin;

    He only could unlock the gate

    Of heaven and let us in.

    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.
