Blow ye the trumpet, blow,
The gladly solemn sound;
Let all the nations know,
To earth’s remotest bound:
Chorus:
The year of jubilee is come:
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
Exalt the Lamb of God,
The sin atoning Lamb;
Redemption by his blood
Through all the lands proclaim:
(Chorus)
Ye slaves of sin and hell,
Your liberty receive,
And safe in Jesus dwell,
And blest in Jesus live:
(Chorus)
The gospel trumpet hear,
The news of pard’ning grace;
Ye happy souls, draw near;
Behold your Savior’s face:
(Chorus)
Jesus, our great High Priest,
Has satisfaction made;
Ye weary spirits, rest;
Ye mourning souls, be glad:
(Chorus)
