[G]
To a hill they called Golgotha
[D]
They led God's only Son
[D]
Then they hung Him on a rugged tree
[C] [G]
For crimes He had not done
[G] [G7]
As they gambled for his garments
[C]
Casting lots there in the dust
[D]
But that soldier found forgiveness
[G]
In the shadow of the cross

And today those words ring true

As the soldiers on that hill

But He died for you, He died for me
[G]
To complete His Father's will
