Rise Up Singing chapter: Gospel, p.93
D - G D / - - A D ://
Some bright 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, O Lordy, 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 grown, I'll fly away
Like a bird that prison bars has flown, I'll fly away
I'll fly away, O Lordy, I'll fly away (in the morning)
When I die, hallelujah, by and by, 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 Lordy, I'll fly away (in the morning)
When I die, hallelujah, by and by, I'll fly away
I'm posting a song a day from the Rise Up Singing songbook, which you may or may not know. It's a pretty invaluable resource for song leaders, and useful for anyone who likes to sing in groups. The book doesn't include the melodies to the songs, just the lyrics and some chords, so I’m trying hard to find the tunes I don’t know, learn them, and post them on YouTube for anyone to learn. That’s where these videos are hosted; the blog is just pretty packaging.
