Author: | James M. Black, 1856-1938 |
Tune: | [When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound] |
Composer: | James M. Black, 1856-1938 |
1 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 call'd up yonder -
When the roll is call'd up yonder I'll be there!
2 On 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! [Chorus]
3 Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun,
Let us talk of all His wondrous 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! [Chorus]
