Lyrics
The Hill... Hill... Hill
Sin around me
Pain is in me
Stress is on me
But I gotta keep looking up
Tears are streaming
Heart is beating
Others leaving
But I gotta keep looking up
Some will trust in horses and chariots
But I will look to the hills and I will not fear
Some may say that they found another way
But my eyes are on you and I will not move from...
The Hill... The Hill... Hill
Trouble has found me
Pressure is crowding
People doubting
But I gotta keep looking up
Ground is shaking
Walls are breaking
And my heart is racing
But I gotta keep looking
Some will trust in horses and chariots
But I will look to the hill and I will not fear
Some may say that they found another way
But my eyes are on you and I will not move ...
Some may trust in horses and chariots
But I will look to the hill and I will not fear
Some may say that they found another way
But my eyes are on you and I will not move
On the hill there's a cross
On the cross there is blood for me for me
On the hill there's a cross
On the cross there is blood for me for me
On the hill there's a cross
On the cross there is blood for me for me
On the hill there's a cross
On the cross there is blood for me for me
Thank you for your blood Jesus
Thank you for your blood Jesus
Thank you for your blood
For you washed away my sins
Nothing but the blood
Oh Precious
Oh Precious
Oh precious is that blood on the hill
On the hill there's a cross
On the cross there is blood for me...for me
On the hill there's a cross
On the cross there is blood for me...for me
On the hill there's a cross
On the cross there is blood for me...for me
On the hill there's a cross
On the cross there is blood for me...for me
He still has the power
Wonderful power
To heal our diseases
To cover our weakness
He still has the power
Wonderful power
To heal our diseases
To cover our weakness
He still has the power
Wonderful power
To heal our diseases
To cover our weakness
[x4]
Still has the power
Wonderful power
To heal our diseases
To cover our weakness
Still has the power
Wonderful power
To heal our diseases
To cover our weakness
On the hill there's a cross on the cross there is blood for me
On the hill there's a cross on the cross there is blood for me
The cross don't discriminate
The cross don't discriminate
The cross don't discriminate no..
There's blood for you
There's blood for you too

Meaning & Inspiration
The Hill frames hardship as a call to keep looking toward Christ rather than surrendering to fear. Sin, pain, pressure, tears, and doubt surround the singer, yet the repeated upward gaze gives the song a steady confession of trust. Its contrast between horses and chariots and reliance on God closely echoes biblical language about refusing confidence in human strength. The hill is ultimately identified with the cross, where the blood of Jesus becomes the basis for cleansing, courage, and hope.
As the song develops, private distress gives way to grateful praise. The repeated declaration that Christ still has power to heal and cover weakness presents the cross as active good news rather than a distant image. Even when the ground shakes and people leave, the central conviction remains fixed: divine help has not moved. The closing insistence that the cross does not discriminate broadens that confidence into an invitation grounded in the sufficiency of Christs sacrifice.
