REVIVAL!

When the Roll is Called Up Yonder James Milton Black was an American gospel song writer with about 1,500 songs to his credit. He also edited a dozen song books. Trained in both voice and the organ, Black conducted singing schools, and was an active layman in his home church in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Of his many songs, one remains in common use, When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder. Of the writing of the song, Black says: I one day met a girl [named Bessie], fourteen years old, poorly clad, and the child of a drunk-ard. She accepted my invitation to attend the Sunday School, and joined the young peoples society. One eveningwhen members answered the roll call by repeating Scripture texts, she failed to respond. I spoke of what a sad thing it would be, when our names are called from the Lambs Book of Life, if one of us should be absent. And I said, O God, when my own name is called up yonder, may I be there to respond! When he returned home that evening, James Black wrote the song inspired by this incident. It turned out that Bessie had been absent because she was seriously ill, and she died shortly after. Black spoke of the above incident at her funeral service, and his song was first sung publicly at that time. Reportedly, it had a great impact on those gathered. Come Sunday and declare in praise, prayer, worship, and in song When the Roll is Called Up Yonder Ill Be There!

When the Roll is Called Up Yonder James Milton Black was an American gospel song writer with about 1,500 songs to his credit. He also edited a dozen song books. Trained in both voice and the organ, Black conducted singing schools, and was an active layman in his home church in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Of his many songs, one remains in common use, When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder. Of the writing of the song, Black says: I one day met a girl [named Bessie], fourteen years old, poorly clad, and the child of a drunk-ard. She accepted my invitation to attend the Sunday School, and joined the young peoples society. One eveningwhen members answered the roll call by repeating Scripture texts, she failed to respond. I spoke of what a sad thing it would be, when our names are called from the Lambs Book of Life, if one of us should be absent. And I said, O God, when my own name is called up yonder, may I be there to respond! When he returned home that evening, James Black wrote the song inspired by this incident. It turned out that Bessie had been absent because she was seriously ill, and she died shortly after. Black spoke of the above incident at her funeral service, and his song was first sung publicly at that time. Reportedly, it had a great impact on those gathered. Come Sunday and declare in praise, prayer, worship, and in song When the Roll is Called Up Yonder Ill Be There!

REVIVAL!

When the Roll is Called Up Yonder James Milton Black was an American gospel song writer with about 1,500 songs to his credit. He also edited a dozen song books. Trained in both voice and the organ, Black conducted singing schools, and was an active layman in his home church in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. Of his many songs, one remains in common use, When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder. Of the writing of the song, Black says: I one day met a girl [named Bessie], fourteen years old, poorly clad, and the child of a drunk-ard. She accepted my invitation to attend the Sunday School, and joined the young peoples society. One eveningwhen members answered the roll call by repeating Scripture texts, she failed to respond. I spoke of what a sad thing it would be, when our names are called from the Lambs Book of Life, if one of us should be absent. And I said, O God, when my own name is called up yonder, may I be there to respond! When he returned home that evening, James Black wrote the song inspired by this incident. It turned out that Bessie had been absent because she was seriously ill, and she died shortly after. Black spoke of the above incident at her funeral service, and his song was first sung publicly at that time. Reportedly, it had a great impact on those gathered. Come Sunday and declare in praise, prayer, worship, and in song When the Roll is Called Up Yonder Ill Be There!
