LyicsBlow ye the trumpet, blow
The gladly solemn sound!
Let all the nations know,
To earth's remotes bound,
The year of jubilee is come,
Return, ye ransom'd sinners, home.
Exalt the lamb of God,
The sin-atoning Lamb;
Redemption by his blood,
Thro' all the earth proclaim:
The year of jubilee is come,
Return, ye ransom'd sinners, home.
Ye, who have sold for nought,
Your heritage above,
May have it back, unbought,
The gift of Jesus' love:
The year of jubilee is come,
Return, ye ransom'd sinners, home.
Ye slaves to sin and hell,
Your liberty receive,
And safe in Jesus dwell,
And blest in Jesus, life;
The year of jubilee is come,
Return, ye ransom'd sinners, home.
The gospel trumpet hear,
The news of pard'ning grace;
Ye happy souls draw near,
Behold your Saviour's face;
The year of jubilee is come,
Return, ye ransom'd sinners, home.
Jesus, our great high-priest,
Himself an off'ring made,
Let weary spirits rest,
Ye mournful souls be glad;
The year of jubilee is come,
Return, ye rasom'd sinners, home.
