When the Roll is Called Up Yonder Words & Music by J. M. Black Jhe composer, James M. Black, has told the story in th e s e w o r d s : “While a teacher in a Sunday school and president of a young people’s society I one day met a girl 14 years old, poorly clad and the child of a drunkard. She accepted my invita tion to attend the Sunday school and join the young people’s society. One evening, at a consecration meeting, when members answered the roll- call b y repeating Scripture texts, she failed to respond. I spoke of what a sad thing it would be if, when our names are called from the Lamb’s Book of Life, one of us should be ab sent; and I said, ‘Oh God, when my own name is called up yonder, may I be there to respond!’ “ I longed for something suitable to sing just then, but I could find noth ing in the books. We closed the meet ing and on my way home . . . the thought came to me, ‘Why don’t you write it?’ When I reached my house . . . the words of the first stanza came to me in full. In 15 minutes more I had composed the other two verses. Going to the piano, I played the music just as it is found today in the hymn books, note for note and I have never dared to change a single word or a note of the piece since.” Had the manuscript not been writ ten in green ink the song might never have become known. Charles H. Gabriel wrote: “While assisting Dr. J. F. Berry in the preparation of a col lection of songs, he took from his desk a roll of manuscripts which had been submitted for use in the book and handed it to me, saying, ‘See if you can find anything in this bunch.’ One from that lot, written in green ink, attracted my attention. The com poser’s name was not familiar to me and the title was a new thought, ‘W hen the Roll is Called Up Yon der.’ Needless to say, we published it.” James M. Black also wrote “Where Jesus Is, ’Tis Heaven There.”
