57. 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 ransom'd sinners, home.

2 Exalt the Lamb of God,
The sin atoning Lamb;
Redemption by his blood
Through all the lands proclaim,
The year of jubilee is come,
The year of jubilee is come;
Return, ye ransom'd sinners, home.

3 The Gospel trumpet hear,
The news of heavenly grace,
Ye happy souls draw near,
Behold your Saviour's face;
The year of jubilee is come;
Return, ye ransom'd sinners, home.

4 Jesus, our Great High Priest,
Has full atonement made;
Ye weary spirits, rest,
Ye mournful souls, be glad;
The year of jubilee is come;
Return, ye ransom'd sinners, home.
