1. 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;
The year of jubilee is come!
return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
2. Jesus, our great High Priest,
hath full atonement made;
ye weary spirits, rest;
ye mournful souls, be glad:
3. Extol the Lamb of God,
the all-atoning Lamb;
redemption in his blood
throughout the world proclaim:
4. Ye slaves of sin and hell,
your liberty receive;
and safe in Jesus dwell,
and blest in Jesus live:
5. Ye who have sold for nought
your heritage above,
shall have it back unbought,
the gift of Jesus’ love:
6. The gospel trumpet hear,
the news of heav’nly grace;
and, saved from earth, appear
before your Savior’s face:
