The Jubilee Has Come!

The voice of grace is heard;
Its sound the spirit stirs!
The Scripture’s now fulfilled;
It speaks of God’s good will!
Christ Jesus has appeared!
His proclamation’s clear:
The Jubilee has come!

Upon the Son of Man
God’s Spirit did descend!
The Savior to anoint,
The Herald to appoint!
Bring gospel to the poor!
The broken hearts to cure!
The Jubilee has come!

For captives, freedom claim!
Set liberty aflame!
Cause all the blind to see!
Their vision to receive!
Give all oppressed release!
From bondage set them free!
The Jubilee has come!

O speak this note of cheer!
Proclaim it far and near!
Where human sorrow’s found;
Where misery abounds!
The gospel now make plain!
Ring out the blessed refrain:
The Jubilee has come!
