Words and Music: James M. Black
 
[Verse 1]
 G                                            C                G
When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound and time shall be no more
                                  A7         D7
And the morning breaks, eternal, bright and fair
          G                                C            G
When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore
                           D7              G
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there
 
[Chorus]
 G
When the roll is called up yonder
          D7
When the roll is called up yonder
          G                 C
When the roll is called up yonder
          G                 D7              G
When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there
 
[Verse 2]
 G                                             C                    G
On that bright and cloudless morning when the dead in Christ shall rise
                      A7           D7
And the glory of his resurrection share
      G                                     C               G
When His chosen ones shall gather to their home beyond the skies
                           D7              G
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there
 
[Chorus]
 G
When the roll is called up yonder
          D7
When the roll is called up yonder
          G                 C
When the roll is called up yonder
          G                 D7              G
When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there
 
[Verse 3]
 G                                    C                 G
Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun
                        A7                D7
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
                           D7              G
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there
 
[Chorus]
 G
When the roll is called up yonder
          D7
When the roll is called up yonder
          G                 C
When the roll is called up yonder
          G                 D7              G
When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there
