[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
I ll fly away, O glory, I ll fly away
When I die, hallelujah, by and by I ll fly away
[Verse 2
When the shadows of this life have grown, I ll fly away
Like a bird from prison bars has flown, I ll fly away
[Chorus]
I ll fly away, O glory, I ll fly away
When I die, hallelujah, by and by I ll fly away
[Verse 3]
Oh how glad and happy when we meet, I ll fly away
No more cold iron shackles on my feet, I ll fly away
[Chorus]
I ll fly away, O glory, I ll fly away
When I die, hallelujah, by and by I ll fly away
[Verse 4]
Just a few more weary days, and then, I ll fly away
To a land where joys shall never end, I ll fly away
[Chorus]
I ll fly away, O glory, I ll fly away
When I die, hallelujah, by and by I ll fly away
