Blow ye the trumpet, blow!
The gladly solemn sound
Let all the nations know,
To earth’s remotest bound:
Refrain
The year of jubilee is come!
The year of jubilee is come!
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
The year of jubilee is come!
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
Jesus, our great high priest,
Hath full atonement made,
Ye weary spirits, rest;
Ye mournful souls, be glad:
Refrain
Extol the Lamb of God,
The sin atoning Lamb;
Redemption by His blood
Throughout the lands proclaim:
Refrain
Ye slaves of sin and hell,
Your liberty receive,
And safe in Jesus dwell,
And blest in Jesus live:
Refrain
Ye who have sold for naughtYour heritage above
Shall have it back unbought,
The gift of Jesus’ love:
Refrain
The Gospel trumpet hear,
The news of heavenly grace;
And saved from earth, appear
Before your Savior’s face:
Refrain
