When The Roll Is Called Up Yonder Lyrics

When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound,
and time shall be no more,
And the morning breaks
eternal bright and fair

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
when the roll is called up yonder

When the roll is called up yonder
when the roll is called up yonder

I'll be there

[piano + steel]

Let us labor 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

When the roll is called up yonder...

When the roll is called up yonder
I'll be there

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
