Hymn: When The Roll Is Called Up Yonder
Psalms 47:5 God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.
1 Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
1 Thessalonians 4:17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

LYRICS:
VERSE 1
When the trum-pet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more,
And the morn-ing breaks, e-ter-nal, bright and fair;
When the saved of earth shall gath-er o-ver on the oth-er shore,
And the roll is called up yon-der, I'll be there.
REFRAIN
When the roll is called up yon-der,
When the roll is called up yon-der,
When the roll is called up yon-der,
When the roll is called up yon-der, I'll be there.
VERSE 2
On that bright and cloud-less morn-ing when the dead in Christ shall rise,
And the glo-ry of his res-ur-rec-tion share;
When his cho-sen ones shall gath-er to their home be-yond the skies,
And the roll is called up yon-der, I'll be there.
REFRAIN
When the roll is called up yon-der,
When the roll is called up yon-der,
When the roll is called up yon-der,
When the roll is called up yon-der, I'll be there.
VERSE 3
Let us la-bour for the Mas-ter from the dawn till set-ting sun,
Let us talk of all his won-drous love and care,
Then when all of life is o-ver and our work on earth is done,
And the roll is called up yon-der, I'll be there.
REFRAIN
When the roll is called up yon-der,
When the roll is called up yon-der,
When the roll is called up yon-der,
When the roll is called up yon-der, I'll be there.
