619 ~ Watchman, Blow the Gospel Trumpet

1

Watchman, blow the gospel trumpet, Every soul a warning give; Whosoever hears the message May repent, and turn and live.


Refrain

Blow the trumpet, trusty watchman, Blow it loud o'er land and sea; God commissions, sound the message! Every captive may be free.

2

Sound it loud o'er every hilltop, Gloomy shade and sunny plain; Ocean depths repeat the message, Full salvation's glad refrain.

3

Sound it in the hedge and highway, Earth's dark spots where exiles roam; Let it tell all things are ready, Father waits to welcome home.

4

Sound it for the heavy laden, Weary, longing to be free; Sound a Savior's invitation, Sweetly saying, "Come to me."
