Some glad morning when this life is over,
I'll fly away;
To that home on God's celestial shore,
I'll fly away (I'll fly away).
I'll fly away, Oh Glory
I'll fly away;
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 away (I'll fly away).
I'll fly away, Oh Glory
I'll fly away; (from the prison I shall fly)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I'll fly away.
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, Oh Glory
I'll fly away; (in the morning)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I'll fly away.
Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away (oh yes I will);
To a land where joy shall never end
I'll fly away.
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.
