Reflect on the pain and suffering our Lord mercifully endured for His dearly loved people with this captivating arrangement by Jeffrey Blersch. For SATB and piano, a new tune adorns this well-known text with a memorable accompaniment. Prepare this for Lent and especially Good Friday.
There is a green hill far away,
Outside 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.
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.
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.
Oh, dearly, dearly has He loved!
And we must love Him too
And trust in His redeeming blood
And try His works to do.
