1. What heavenly music do I hear,
Salvation sounding free!
Ye souls in bondage, lend an ear,
This is the Jubilee!

2. How sweetly do the tidings roll
All 'round from sea to sea;
From land to land, from pole to pole,
This is the Jubilee!

3. Good news, good news, to Adam's race,
Let Christians all agree,
To sing redeeming love and grace,
This is the Jubilee!

4. The gospel sounds a sweet release,
To all in misery,
And bids them welcome home to peace;
This is the Jubilee!

5. Jesus is on the mercy seat,
Before Him bend the knee;
Let heaven and earth his praise repeat;
This is the Jubilee!

6. Come, ye released, your tributes bring,
With songs of harmony;
While on the road to Canaan sing,
This is the Jubilee!
