G C G
When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more,
D
And the morning breaks, eternal, bright and fair.
G C G
When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore,
D G
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
G D
When the roll is called up yonder, when the roll is called up yonder,
G C G D G
When the roll is called up yonder, when the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
G C G
On that bright and cloudless morning when the dead in Christ shall rise,
D
And the glory of His resurrection share.
G C G
When His chosen ones shall gather to their home beyond the skies,
D G
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
G C G
Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun,
D
Let us talk of all His wondrous love and care.
G C G
Then when all of life is over, and our work on earth is done,
D G
And the rolled is called up yonder, I'll be there.
