216 – When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder

1
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.

Refrain
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.

2
On that bright and cloudless morning,
when the dead in Christ shall rise,
And the glory of His resurection share;
When His chosen ones shall gather
to their home beyond the skies,
And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.

3
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.

The New Testament is full of promises to us that give us confidence that God will accept our belief and witness to His salvation that Jesus purchased for us with the currency of His own blood. I am going to live for Him and forever in His presence in heaven and the new earth. That is your Good News to share to the world, brother and sisters!

As I woke up this morning i have a burden in my heart, and a word came while we are observing our church meeting in my house.Luke 13:22-27 after going through it.. especially verse 27-“But he will reply, ‘I don’t know you or where you come from. Away from me, all you evildoers!’
I paused evildoers…! another scripture came
John 15:14-You are my friends if you do what I command.
So if your disobey Jesus Command , You are not His Friend..,,what is this Jesus command that must be obeyed ? Mark 16:15– He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.
So as a christian if you refused to go, you are not His friend, you automatically becomes His Enemy , you become an evildoer….Hmmm.!
The his Hymnal Came:
WHEN THE ROLL IS CALL UP YONDER

I’m an old woman now but I’ve always loved this song. The older I get the more I think of resting in Jesus and all the loved ones who has passed before that I want to meet in the air when Jesus calls us home. No other reunion could be sweeter to think upon, then we’ll meet Him in the air and will ever be with our Lord. Never a meeting will be as sweet or looked forward than the one I’m looking to now.

You can’t be there by chance but by working harder through serving HIM and then your name will be in the roll call
