Words and Music by Alfred E. Brumley
Some glad morning when this life is o'er,
I'll fly away;
To THAT home on God's celestial shore,
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.
When the shadows of this life have gone,
I'll fly away;
Like a bird from these prison walls I'll fly,
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.
Oh how glad and happy when we meet
No more cold iron shackles on my feet
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.
(repeat chorus, after instrumental interlude)
Just a few more weary days and then,
I'll fly away;
To a land where joy shall never end,
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).
