995  There Is A Green Hill Far Away

There is a green hill far away without a city wall

Where the dear Lord was crucified, Who died to save us all.

CHORUS

Oh, dearly, dearly, has He loved

And died our sins to bear;

We trust in His redeeming blood,

And life eternal share.

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.

He died that we might be forgiven, He died to make us good

That we might from our sins be freed, saved by His precious blood.

There was no other good enough to pay the price of sin,

He only could divine life give and dwell Himself within.
