Author: Cecil Frances Alexander Hymnal: The Hymnal #157a (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Jesus Christ the Lord His Passion; Christ Friend, The; Christ Passion, His Lyrics: 1 There is a green hill far away,
Without a city wall,
Where the dear Lord was crucified,
Who died to save us all.
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 forgiven,
He died to make us good,
That we might go at last to heaven,
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 heaven, and let us in.
5 O dearly, dearly has He loved,
And we must love Him too,
And trust in His redeeming blood,
And try His works to do.
Amen. Tune Title: MEDITATION
