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 ga- ther ov- er on the o- ther shore, And the roll is called up yon- der, I'll be there. 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.
 
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 ga- ther to their home be- yond the skies,
 
3. Let us la- bor 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 ov- er, and our work on earth is done,
