Gosdin, Vern - I'll Fly Away Lyrics
I'll fly away, oh glory, I'll fly away
When I die, hallelujah by and by, I'll fly away
Some bright morning when this life is over, I'll fly away
To a land on God's celestial shore, I'll fly away
I'll fly away, oh glory, I'll fly away
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 from these prison walls, I'll fly away
I'll fly away, oh glory, I'll fly away
When I die, hallelujah by and by, I'll fly away
Oh how glad and happy when we meet, I'll fly away
I'll fly away, oh glory, I'll fly away
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 joy will never end, I'll fly away
I'll fly away, oh glory, I'll fly away
When I die, hallelujah by and by, I'll fly away

Gosdin, Vern I'll Fly Away Comments
36 sad people who couldn't like Vern's original approach to this classic....I'm all for original....love this best by Willie Nelson...but do so love this laid back interpretation
Great old hymn and sang perfect
Very beautiful
Gives me chills every time. Amen, Gosdin.
Perfection💟
I love this slower version. Vern was no saint but like the rest of us he wanted to be. My favorite version
Told the wife (Who was always threatening to kill me😂) that if I went first I wanted this and Vern's version of Jesus hold my hand played at my funeral..any additional music was up to her.
I asked my wife to play this and Jesus hold my hand at my funeral. I can't think of a better send off.
Lisa Stack has said it all, I agree 100% ,thats country
Sends chills through me. Awesome voice. Blesses my soul. RIP Vern.

Oh how glad and happy when we meet, I'll fly away
No more cold iron shackles on my feet, I'll fly away
I'll fly away, oh glory, I'll fly away
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 joy will never end, I'll fly away

When I die, hallellujah by and by, I'll fly a
This Is The Result's Of A Great Song And The Best Country Singer to ever Hit Nashville Vern And The KMA Band was All Hand Picked By Vern He Loved Gospel Music And Harmonies And It Show's Very Well On Stage He Never Needed Autotune it was just Pure talent .
Great song, I love it but does "I'll fly away" refer to just good moments in the here and now or death?
Best cover of a classic ever!
LOVE VERN!!
Me to Janice.
Love this Song he makes you chill to the bone an draws you right in to the song makes you want to get up an shout
great singing
the finest singer to ever take the stage.No matter what he sang,the chill factor was high
My mother loved Vern! They both left me in the same year 2009. Sometimes it makes me wonder! That is a really nice comment and post! God bless you 🙏
My dad died in July this was his favorite song God bless Vern Gosdin
Thank you...so much for sharing
I met Vern in Tennessee. It was a humbling expieriance. God bless Vern and bless you for posting this.
Heard first three bars, then nothing. I am extinct to you tube. Seems software is out of date.
That pianist is good.
Admin, please correct singer's surname.
@stanibol Thank you, it has been corrected
simply loved hearing this ... wonderful song sung the right way
derwin is playin flat top on video
We need country singers like this to return to country music, this is true counrty music. I love this music.
@Lisa Stack We seemed to have lost all of our true country singers. They are all missed so much. I sure wish the newer singers would pick up this style.
Ain't happenin'.
Good luck with that. They don’t want him unless he’s got dancing women or loud guitars. Country ain’t country anymore.
I started a fb page called “save real country music”. If you want to hear real country music on the radio again please help me by liking my page and participating in little assignments here and there to make a change.
Love this style better than any other its like wow!
This is the best song ever written!!!
sing it vern.
@LUCKY7FLIGHTMEDIC,I hear ya, my momma and my Husband, they both loved Vern as much as I do
Yo momma'!
I found this song, Vern, just after my sister died. It helped me through that sad time. I played it over and over and over. Always felt like an angel led me to it one day at the mall. Then years later I mentioned it to a friend that knew him, and she surprised me one day with the Gospel Album this song is on, and His Autograph, personalized to me. I play it and think of my sister. She passed on in 1987. Seems like yesterday. She flew away to be with Christ.
My mother really loved Vern! I feel your pain 😔 They both left me in the same year 2009. Kinda makes me wonder! God bless you 🙏 That is a heart felt comment and post 🙏
Heaven's choir has The Voice now...how I miss hearing you live- but you live forever in my CD collection....
never heard anyone sing this like he sings it listened to his music all my life 38 yrs first time heard this one but will listen to it a whole lot now
@LUCKY7FLIGHTMEDIC, and you know your mommas gotta front row seat and loving it!!!
Vern's 'The Gospel Album'
Simply the best !!!!! Will be missed.
HE'S PROBABLY UP IN HEAVEN SINGIN' TO MY MOMMA
VOICE THAT IS TOTALLY UNTOUCHABLE AND UNFORGETABLE... RIP VERN
This version is so good that it seems like a different song
The back-up singers, Very good too.
A song I sang very Sunday in church but done in a way only Vern could do...Not enough Vern's left in this world.
CAn ANYONE please messege me what alblum this was on,needed for a family member and cant download,dont know which [email protected],TYTY
a great song and a great singer
My son in law Danny Hinson is singing high harmony and playing mandolin and his brother Derwin is singing low harmony and playing the flat top.
Vern is one of the greatest....have listened to him since I was a teen.
Tonal vocalizations very similar to Randy Travis.
Incomparable! Man is truly an amazing talent!
Wow, listen to that harmony!!!
I love this. I'm sure you've been told that Gosdin is misspelled in your title above.
@davidgmetoo Great gosple music jesus hold my hand and i'll fly away by Brother vern gosdin are there many more videos? let me know thank you and God bless
Thank GOD FOR SHARING VERN WITH US just a little while.He is singing in the Choir of the LORD. There were plenty of others to greet him I'm sure.Yes,I LOVED HIM TOO.REST IN PEACE.I SURE MISS YOU.
I love to hear
vern sisg this song it has meant alot to me to just to set and hear it. It has lifted up some much Thank You Vern and thank God for your voice!

@tampamary
Haleluyah
The best version of I'll fly away ever by Vern Gosdin.
Allison Krause.
@whispercrazy13 We have an awesome God He just healed my only child of cancer, people can say what they want but God healed my son. Praise God Almighty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No one could ever do it any better. I loved ever song he ever sang. I have never heard anyone sing it like he does, it is awesome! Vern you music will live on, but you and your talent will surely be missed for a lifetime! God bless.
If you like this song...check out Vern's - "Way Down Deep" You will have to search for it by spelling the last name "GOSDEN" its spelled wrong. Enjoy!
The guitar playing in the background is awesome.....makes you wanna get up and join in...
I have so many versions of this song....but no one can sing it like the "Voice". There's no doubt he's the Leader of the Band in heaven and the angels are singing backup.
@ThePersianlover GLAD IT BLESSED YOU!! BLESS U STAY SRTONG FOR OUR KING!! GOD BLESS
the nicest version of this song EVER! love it! RIP Vern...

Thanks, Vern, for sharing your time, talent, and treasure!!! Sweet times for you in heaven.
Vern died 2 years ago on my birthday (April 28th). I was out in Vegas. His music has always meant so much to me.Especially the sad ones. He was so good at those.
Amazing stuff! Vern, rock on! :-)
@donnaoliver1 My prayers are with you my friend
we all will flyaway when god calls us home
My Dad passed away yesterday. This is the song He had chosen to be the last song played at his funeral.
That was great. Very well done.
my girlfriends dad would love this song-he lays on a hill in st.clairsville ohio.
Bible, Romans Chapter 10, vs 9& 10.
you will see.
have to agree with you all! gawd i will miss this guy! i am so glad i made all those videos of him on nashville network back in the early 80's
"When I die hallelujah by and by, I'll fly away." Vern we love ya man, your memory will still live on!
one of the best old Gospel songs ever. Great fun to sing and play. It was one of the first songs I ever sang in church as a professional musician. I prefer it with a stand up walking bass in a more bluegrass style but I love the harmonies in this video.
It needs more banjo Joey!
LOL
Thanks Vern I've always loved your sound. I'll be looking for that box set (can't wait)
Vern you are awesome you rank right up there with Jones and Haggard.
I enjoy the way you do this - thanks. Gene
I'll Fly Away! Your version, one of the best songs I have ever heard! when I go out, thats what is gonna be playing. Love ya Vern!
