[Intro]
(I'll fly away, fly away)
[Verse 1]
Some glad morning when this life is o'er
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, I'll fly away)
To a home on God's celestial shore
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, I'll fly away)
[Chorus]
I'll fly away, oh glory (I'll fly away, fly away, oh glory)
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, fly away in the morning)
When I die, hallelujah, by and by (Oh glory)
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, fly away, fly away)
[Verse 2]
When the shadows of this life have gone
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, I'll fly away)
Like a bird from prison bars has flown
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, I'll fly away)
[Chorus]
I'll fly away, oh glory (I'll fly away, fly away, oh glory)
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, fly away in the morning)
When I die, hallelujah, by and by (Oh glory)
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, fly away, fly away)
[Verse 2]
Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, I'll fly away)
To a land where joy shall never end
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, I'll fly away)
[Chorus]
I'll fly away, oh glory (I'll fly away, fly away, oh glory)
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, fly away in the morning)
When I die, hallelujah, by and by (Oh glory)
I'll fly away (I'll fly away, fly away, fly away)
