I'll Fly Away recorded by Johnny Cash written by Albert . Brumley Some glad morning when this life is over I'll fly away To a home on God's celestial shore 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 When the shadows of this life are gone I'll fly away Like a bird from prison bars has flown I'll fly away repeat #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 repeat #2
