The year of ju-bi- lee has come, Return, ye ransomed sin - ners, home.

2 Jesus, our great High Priest,

Hath full atonement made:
Ye weary spirits! rest,

Ye mournful souls! be glad; The year of jubilee is come; Return, ye ransomed sinners! home. 3 Extol the Lamb of God,

The all-atoning Lamb;
Redemption in his blood,

Throughout the world, proclaim;
The year of jubilee is come;
Return, ye ransomed sinners! home.
4 Ye, who have sold for naught
Your heritage above!
Shall have it back unbought,
The gift of Jesus' love;
The year of jubilee is come;
Return, ye ransomed sinners! home.
CHARLES WESLEY, 1755.

ARISE, my soul, arise,

Shake off thy guilty fears; The bleeding sacrifice

In my behalf appears; Before the throne my Surety stands, My name is written on his hands.

2 He ever lives above,

For me to intercede; His all-redeeming love,

His precious blood to plead; His blood atoned for all our race, And sprinkles now the throne of grace.

3 Five bleeding wounds he bears, Received on Calvary; They pour effectual prayers,

They strongly speak for me; Forgive him, O forgive, they cry, Nor let the ransomed sinner die. 4 The Father hears him pray, His dear Anointed One; He can not turn away

The presence of his Son;
His spirit answers to the blood,
And tells me I am born of God.

5 My God is reconciled,

His pard'ning voice I hear,
He owns me for his child,
I can no longer fear;

With confidence I now draw nigh,
And Father, Abba, Father, cry.

1. Jesus, Sav-iour, pilot me,

Un-known waves before me roll,

Hid-ing rock and treach'rous shoal;

Boist'rous waves o- bey thy will, When thou sayst to them "Be still!" 'Twixt me and the peace-tul rest, Then, while lean-ing on thy breast,
