WHEN THE ROLL IS CALLED UP YONDER


[Verse 1]

         G                                    C                G
When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more,
        G                        A7         D
And the morning breaks, eternal, bright and fair;
         G                           G7   C            G
When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore,
                          A7              G
And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.


[Chorus 1]

         G
When the roll, is called up yonder,
         D7
When the roll, is called up yonder,
         G        G7        C
When the roll, is called up yonder,
         G                 D7             G
When the roll is called up yonder I’ll be there.


[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)

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 2]
(same chords as in the first one)

Let us labour 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.
