Some glad morning, when this life is o'er
I'll fly away,
To a land on God's celestial shore
I'll fly away.
When the shadows of this life have grown
I'll fly away.
Like a bird from these prison walls, I'll fly
I'll fly away.
I'll fly away, O glory
I'll fly away
When I die, Hallelujah bye and bye,
I'll fly away.
O, 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, O Glory,
I'll fly away.
When I die Hallelujah bye and bye,
I'll fly away!
--- Instrumental ---
Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away.
To a land where joys will never end
I'll fly away.
I'll fly away, O glory
I'll fly away
When I die, Hallelujah bye and bye,
I'll fly away
I'll fly away,
To a land on God's celestial shore
I'll fly away.
When the shadows of this life have grown
I'll fly away.
Like a bird from these prison walls, I'll fly
I'll fly away.
I'll fly away, O glory
I'll fly away
When I die, Hallelujah bye and bye,
I'll fly away.
O, 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, O Glory,
I'll fly away.
When I die Hallelujah bye and bye,
I'll fly away!

Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away.
To a land where joys will never end
I'll fly away.
I'll fly away, O glory
I'll fly away
When I die, Hallelujah bye and bye,
I'll fly away
