When The Roll Is Called Up Yonder
James M. Black |
Verse
When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound and time shall be no more
And the morning breaks eternal, bright and fair,
When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there!Chorus
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder,
When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be thereOn that bright and cloudless morning when the dead in Christ shall rise
And the glory of His resurrection share,
When His chosen ones shall gather to their home beyond the skies
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there!
Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun,
Let us talk of all His wonderous love and care;
Then when all of life is over and our work on earth is done
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there!
