Verse 1:
Ab
Watchman, blow the gospal trumpet,
Db    Bb7            Eb
Every soul a warning give;
Ab
Whosoever hears the message
Eb              Bb7      Eb
May repent, and turn and live.

Refrain:
Eb7                      Ab
Blow the trumpet, trusty watchman,
        Db                 C
Blow it loud o'er land and sea;
Ab                         Bb
God commissions, sound the message!
              Ab  Eb Ab
Every captive may be free.

Verse 2:
Ab
Sound it loud o'er every hilltop,
Db     Bb7             Eb
Gloomy shade and sunny plain;
Ab
Ocean depths repeat the message,
Eb               Bb7     Eb
Full saivation's glad re-frain.

Refrain:
Eb7                      Ab
Blow the trumpet, trusty watchman,
        Db                 C
Blow it loud o'er land and sea;
Ab                         Bb
God commissions, sound the message!
              Ab  Eb Ab
Every captive may be free.

Verse 3:
Ab
Sound it in the hedge and highway,
Db           Bb7                Eb
Earth's dark spots where exiles roam;
Ab
Let it tell all things are ready,
Eb              Bb7     Eb
Father waits to welcome home.

Refrain:
Eb7                      Ab
Blow the trumpet, trusty watchman,
        Db                 C
Blow it loud o'er land and sea;
Ab                         Bb
God commissions, sound the message!
              Ab  Eb Ab
Every captive may be free.

Verse 4:
Ab
Sound it for the heavy laden,
Db     Bb7           Eb
Weary, longing to be free;
Ab
Sound a Savior's invitation,
Eb               Bb7     Eb
Sweetly saying, "Come to Me."

Refrain:
Eb7                      Ab
Blow the trumpet, trusty watchman,
        Db                 C
Blow it loud o'er land and sea;
Ab                         Bb
God commissions, sound the message!
              Ab  Eb Ab
