[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 (I'll fly away)

[Chorus]
I'll fly away, Oh Glory
I'll fly away
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by
I'll fly away (I'll fly away)

[Verse 2]
Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away
To a land where joy shall never end
I'll fly away (I'll fly away)

[Chorus]
