The Hymnal ‎#395

395. Blow ye the trumpet, blow

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,
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,
The year of jubilee is come;
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.

3. Extol the Lamb of God,
The all-atoning Lamb;
Redemption in His blood
Throughout the world proclaim:
The year of jubilee is come,
The year of jubilee is come;
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.

4. 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,
The year of jubilee is come;
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.

5. The gospel trumpet hear,
The news of heavenly grace;
And, saved from earth, appear
Before your Saviour's face:
The year of jubilee is come,
The year of jubilee is come;
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.

Amen.
