Hymn 74
P.M.
1. Blow you the trumpet, blow!
The gladly solemn sound!
Let all the nations know
To earth's remotest bound,
The year of Jubilee is come;
Return, you ransomed sinners, home.

2. Extol the Lamb of God,
The sin-atoning Lamb:
Redemption in his blood
Throughout the world proclaim:
The year of Jubilee is come;
Return, you ransomed sinners, home.

3. Jesus, our great High Priest,
Has full atonement made:
You weary spirits rest,
You mournful souls be glad:
The year of Jubilee is come;
Return, you ransomed sinners, home.

4. You slaves of sin and hell,
Your liberty receive;
And safe in Jesus dwell,
And blessed in Jesus live:
The year of Jubilee is come;
Return, you ransomed sinners, home.

5. You bankrupt debtors, know
The wond'rous grace of Heav'n,
Though sums immense you owe,
A free discharge is giv'n:
The year of Jubilee is come;
Return, you ransomed sinners, home.

6. You who have sold for nought
The heritage above,
Shall have it back, unbought,
The gift of Jesus' love:
The year of Jubilee is come;
Return, you ransomed sinners, home.

7. The gospel trumpet hear,
The news of heav'nly grace:
And, saved from earth, appear
Before your Savior's face:
The year of Jubilee is come;
Return, you ransomed sinners, home.
