Lyrics

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤

Some glad morning when this life is overI’ll fly awayTo a home on God’s celestial shoreI’ll fly away
I’ll fly away, oh, GloryI’ll fly awayWhen I die, Hallelujah, by and byI’ll fly away
Just a few more weary days and thenI’ll fly awayTo a land where joy shall never endI’ll fly away
I’ll fly away, oh, GloryI’ll fly awayWhen I die, Hallelujah, by and byI’ll fly away
Yeah, when I die, Hallelujah, by and byI’ll fly away
