Lyrics
1. Blow ye the trumpet, blow!
The gladly solemn sound
Let all the nations know,
To earth’s remotest bound:
|: 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:
|: The year of jubilee is come! :|
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
3. Extol the Lamb of God,
The sin atoning Lamb;
Redemption by His blood
Throughout the lands proclaim:
|: The year of jubilee is come! :|
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
4. Ye slaves of sin and hell,
Your liberty receive,
And safe in Jesus dwell,
And blest in Jesus live:
|: The year of jubilee is come! :|
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
5. Ye who have sold for naught
Your heritage above
Shall have it back unbought,
The gift of Jesus’ love:
|: The year of jubilee is come! :|
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
6. The Gospel trumpet hear,
The news of heavenly grace;
And saved from earth, appear
Before your Savior’s face:
|: The year of jubilee is come! :|
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
7. **alt verses
8. The seventh trumpet hear,
The news of heav'nly grace;
Salvation now is near;
Seek ye the Saviour's face:
|: The year of jubilee is come! :|
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
9. Exalt the Son of God,
The all-atoning Lamb!
Redemption by his blood
To all the world proclaim:
|: The year of jubilee is come! :|
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
10. Though ye have sold for nought
Your heritage above,
Come, take it back unbought,
The gift of Jesus’ love;
|: The year of jubilee is come! :|
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
11. Bond-slaves of sin, and hell,
Your liberty receive;
No more in darkness dwell,
But look to Christ and live;
|: The year of jubilee is come! :|
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
