  1. 1Blow ye the trumpet, blow
  2. The gladly solemn sound!

  6. The year of Jubilee is come;
  7. Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
  8. 2Exalt the Lamb of God,
  9. The sin-atoning Lamb;

  25. Ye mournful souls, be glad!
  26. The year of Jubilee is come,
  27. The year of Jubilee is come;
  28. Return, ye ransomed sinners, home.
