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!
"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!
"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!
"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! The year of jubilee is come!
Return, ye ransomed sinners, home!
"Ye who have sold for nought 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!
"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! The year of jubilee is come!
Return to your eternal home!"
- Charles Wesley
