Hymnal: Light in the Valley #30 (1898) First Line: When shall close the earth's long ages, Christ shall come to claim his own Refrain First Line: When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there, I'll be there Lyrics: 1 When shall close the earth's long ages, Christ shall come to claim his own;
And he shall in glorious majesty appear.
When earth's teeming millions gather up before the judgment throne;
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
Chorus:
When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there, I'll be there.
When earth's teeming millions gather up before the judgment throne;
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
2 When the "Book of Life" is opened, and the crown of glory giv'n
To the saved of earth, immortal, bright and fair!
When with victory they gather for their joyous rest in heav'n,
When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
Chorus:
When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there, I'll be there.
When with victory they gather for their joyous rest in heav'n,
When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
3 When the armies of Jehovah shout "the battles all are o'er!"
And their "welcome home" and glad reunion share;
When in grand review they're mustered out upon the other shore,
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
Chorus:
When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there, I'll be there.
When in grand review they're mustered out upon the other shore,
And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there.
4 Let us then be ever faithful 'til the Master bid us rise,
And shall close our life of labor, toil and care;
Then we'll sweetly, rest with Jesus in our home beyond the skies,
When the roll is called up yonder, We'll be there.
Chorus:
When the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there, I'll be there.
Then we'll sweetly rest with Jesus in our home beyond the skies,
When the roll is called up yonder, We'll be there.

W. G. Cooper
1861 - 1938 Person Name: Rev. W. G. C. Author of "When the Roll is Called" in Light in the Valley Rv William Gustin Cooper USA 1861-1938. Born in Evansville, WI, he married Mabel Luella Cooper. He became a Baptist minister having pastorates in Hortonville Village, WI, 1897 – 1901, and later in Ira, VT, in 1922. He also conducted camp meetings. He wrote a number of hymn lyrics and a few tunes. He died in Canton, ME.
Note: In a campmeeting service in 1889, when the service was over, a lyricist, Warren Cornell, sat writing a poem. As he left the site, he dropped the paper he was writing and didn't notice it. An hour or or so later, Rev. Cooper came in to tidy up the tent area for the next service, saw the paper, picked it up and read it, and was so inspired by the words, that he finished writing the text and went to the organ and composed the tune for the hymn, “Wonderful peace”.
