<p>There&#8217;s a hill lone and grey, in a land far away,<br>
<!-- There&#8217;s a hill lone and gray -->
In a country beyond the blue sea,<br>
Where beneath that fair sky went a Man forth to die<br>
For the world and for you and for me.
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">Oh, it bows down my heart<br>
And the teardrops will start,<br>
When in mem&#8217;ry that grey hill I see.<br>
For &#8217;twas there on its side, Jesus suffered and died<br>
To redeem a poor sinner like me.</p>
<p>Behold! faint on the road, &#8217;neath a world&#8217;s heavy load,<br>
Comes a thorn crown&egrave;d Man on the way,<br>
With a cross He is bowed, but still on through the crowd<br>
He&#8217;s ascending that hill lone and grey.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>Hark! I hear the dull blow of the hammer swung low;<br>
They are nailing my Lord to the tree,<br>
And the cross they upraised while the multitude gaze<br>
On the blest Lamb of dark Calvary.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>How they mock Him in death, to His last lab&#8217;ring breath,<br>
While His friends sadly weep o&#8217;er the way;<br>
But though lonely and faint, still no word of complaint<br>
Fell from Him on the hill lone and grey.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>Then the darkness came down and the rocks rent around,<br>
And a cry pierced the grief laden air;<br>
&#8217;Twas the voice of our King Who received death&#8217;s dark sting,<br>
All to save us from endless despair.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>Let the sun hide its face, let the earth reel apace,<br>
Over men who their Savior have slain;<br>
But behold from the sod, comes the blest Lamb of God,<br>
Who was slain and is risen again.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
