Cecil F. Alexander
Geo. C. Stebbins.
(FIRST VERSE)
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 me, And we must love Him too, And trust in His redeeming blood, And try His works to do.
(SECOND VERSE)
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.
(CHORUS)
Oh, dearly, dearly has He loved me, And we must love Him too, And trust in His redeeming blood, And try His works to do.
(THIRD VERSE)
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.
(CHORUS)
Oh, dearly, dearly has He loved me, And we must love Him too, And trust in His redeeming blood, And try His works to do.
(FOURTH VERSE)
There was no other good enough To pay the price of sin, He only could unlock the gate Of heaven and let us in.
(CHORUS)
Oh, dearly, dearly has He loved me, And we must love Him too, And trust in His redeeming blood, And try His works to do.
