    This, to me, is a healing song. I like the traditional version as well, but I wanted to add a little bit of myself to it, and so here it is. (You may click the song title of any of these songs to read the lyrics and song stories)

    Story Behind the Song
    (Feb 27, 2002) I felt compelled to record this song, it was almost a nagging feeling actually, as if someone out there just needed to hear it. My timing is terrible, and a button on my shirt hits the guitar every so often, making a popping sound... but I never claim that any of my songs are perfect. They're simply here. Anyway, I hope that someone out there finds some meaning within this song. This is traditionally a bluegrass song, I guess I have changed that a little bit.

    Lyrics
    Some glad morning when this life is over
    I will fly away
    to a home in that sky where angels fly
    I will fly away

    I will fly away, Oh Glory
    I'll fly away in the morning
    When I die I will spread my wings and fly
    I'll fly away

    I will fly away, oh Glory
    I'll fly away
    to a home in that sky where angels fly
    I will fly away

    When the shadows of this life
    have gone away
    I'll fly away
    Like a bird, from her prison she has flown
    I'll fly away just like that, too
    Baby I'll fly away

    I will fly to a place where everyone is free
    I'll fly away
    No more pain, no more wars and no more grief
    I will fly away

    I will fly away, Oh glory
    I will fly away in the morning
    When I die I will spread my wings and fly
    I'll fly away
    I'll fly away

    I will fly away
    I will fly away
