  1. I’ll Fly Away

    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

    You may have heard this song in the film O Brother, Where Art Thou, or in the popular late-1990s TV series 7th Heaven. Performed by numerous country, bluegrass, and pop music performers, I’ll Fly Away will soon mark its first centenary: originally written as a church hymn by Alfred E. Brumley in 1929, its folksy tune and the message of life eternal continues to inspire hope and faith. And it happens to be one of my all-time favourite songs!

    In this post I’ll present an annotated version of the lyrics intended primarily for English language learners: below the lyrics you’ll find the vocabulary notes, along with the links to just a few of the renditions accessible on YouTube. Each one is different, so you can compare different styles.

    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, Oh Glory
    I'll fly away; (in the morning)
    When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
    I'll fly away.

    When the shadows of this life have gone,
    I'll fly away;
    Like a bird from prison bars has flown,
    I'll fly away (I'll fly away)

    [Chorus]

    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]
