Etta James - I'll Fly Away
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.
Chorus
I'll fly away, Oh Glory
I'll fly away;
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by,
I'll fly away.
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
3.
When the shadows of this life have gone,
I'll fly away;
Like a bird from prison bars has flown,
I'll fly away

@Mftjan2000 Ya hon, i've heard it; i love this song it's on my playlist, so is "Swing Low." Turn the lights off- is just humor, it's not meant to upset.
-
@52thanks What s funny??? Have you listened to it????
-
Would love this played at my funeral...for starters who could possibly stay dead listening to this?
-
Etta, when I go I want your version of this wonderful gospel song played as they put my urn in the ground. I hope I will see you in paradise ... your beautiful voice and heartfelt rendition of this song makes it a sure bet you are already there.
-
Great voice, we will miss you but God knows best.

I was just listening to Alison Krauss and Gillian Welch and thought, oh, nothing could be better than simple and genuine singing of this song. I was wrong. But they're as good for different reasons.

I couldn't end the day with just at last... Had to make this a celebration of Etta's release from the shackles of illness!
Let's celebrate her return to forever!!!
She's given us all such a paradigm shift as few have ever!
I've shamelessly cried so many times today, for me for her, but truly she'll never be forgotten and now she's no longer suffering. She will reside in Heaven forever!
