Some glad morning when this life is o’er,
I’ll fly away;
To a home on God’s celestial shore,
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away).
[Chorus]
I’ll fly away, Oh Glory
I’ll fly away; (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away).
When the shadows of this life have gone,
I’ll fly away;
Like a bird from these prison bars has flown,
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away)
[Chorus]
Oh how glad and happy when we meet,
I’ll fly away,
No more cold iron shackles on my feet
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away)
[Chorus]
Just a few more weary days and then,
I’ll fly away;
To a land where joy will never end,
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away)
[Chorus]
I’ll fly away, Oh Glory
I’ll fly away; (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away).
