16403. When He Calls the Roll

1 I shall stand with the saved by His grace,
When He comes, I shall look on His face;
And His likeness I’ll bear,
And a bright crown shall wear,
When my Savior shall call the roll.

Refrain:
When He calls the roll,
When He calls the roll,
When my Savior calls the roll in the sky,
When He calls the roll,
When He calls the roll,
I shall meet Him in the clouds on high.

2 I shall sing the sweet song of the blood,
I shall wear the great name of my Lord,
In the city of gold,
With its glories untold,
When my Savior shall call the roll. [Refrain]

3 All my work will be tried in His light,
No more shadows shall darken my sight;
And the Savior I own
Will be King on a throne,
In the day when He calls the roll. [Refrain]
