When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more,
        C                       D7         G
And the morning breaks, eternal, bright and fair;
         C                           C7   F            C
When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore,

And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.

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

And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.
