On a battlefield one day a charge was given
To a soldier in a land so far from home
To climb the hill meant d**h was surely waiting
Determined, he decided to press on
In his mind, he pictured people living in freedom
All because of the price that he would pay
His life, a sacrifice by his own choosing
But oh, what a victory that day
He took the hill, a perfect soldier
He took the hill, now the battle's over
The price was paid, our flag was raised
His task fulfilled, he took the hill
On a battlefield for souls a charge was given
To a soldier in a land so far from home
Calvary's climb meant d**h was surely waiting
Determined, He decided to press on
In His mind, He pictured people living in heaven
All because of the price that He would pray
His life, the sacrifice by His own choosing
But oh, what a victory that day
He took the hill, heaven's soldier
He took the hill, now the battle's over
The cross was raised, sin's debt was paid
God's love fulfilled, He took the hill
