[Verse 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, O glory,
I’ll fly away;
When I die, hallelujah, by and by,
I’ll fly away.

[Verse 2]
When the shadows
of this life have gone,
I’ll fly away;
Like a bird from
prison bars has flown,
I’ll fly away.

[Chorus]
I’ll fly away, O glory,
I’ll fly away;
When I die, hallelujah, by and by,
I’ll fly away.

[Verse 3]
Just a few more
weary days and then,
I’ll fly away;
To a land where
joys shall never end,
I’ll fly away.

[Chorus X3]
I’ll fly away, O glory,
I’ll fly away;
When I die, hallelujah, by and by,
I’ll fly away.

[Tag]
When we all get to heaven,
What a day of rejoicing that will be!
When we all see Jesus,
We’ll sing and shout the victory.

[Verse 1]
Alone in my sorrow
and dead in my sin,
Lost without hope
and no place to begin.
Your love made a way
to let mercy come in,
When death was arrested
and my life began.

[Verse 2]
Ash was redeemed,
only beauty remains.
And my orphan heart
was given a name.
My mourning grew quiet,
my feet rose to dance,
When death was arrested
and my life began.

[Chorus 1]
Oh, Your grace so free,
Washes over me
You have made me new,
Now life begins with You.

[Verse 3]
Released from my chains
I’m a pris’ner no more.
My shame was a ransom
He faithfully bore.
He cancelled my debt
and He called me His friend,
When death was arrested
and my life began.

[Chorus 2]
Oh, Your grace so free,
Washes over me
You have made me new,
Now life begins with You.
It’s Your endless love
pouring down on us.
You have made us new,
Now life begins with You.

[Verse 4]
Our Savior displayed
on a criminal’s cross,
Darkness rejoiced
as though heaven had lost.
But, then Jesus arose
with our freedom in hand.
That’s when death was arrested
and my life began.
That’s when death was arrested
and my life began.

[Chorus 3]
Oh, Your grace so free,
Washes over me
You have made me new,
Now life begins with You.
It’s Your endless love
pouring down on us.
You have made us new,
Now life begins with You.

[Bridge]
Oh, we’re free, free,
forever we’re free.
Come join the song
of all the redeemed.
Yes, we’re free, free,
forever, Amen.
When death was arrested
and my life began.

[Verse 1]
What gift of grace
is Jesus, my Redeemer?
There is no more
for heaven now to give.
He is my joy,
my righteousness and freedom,
My steadfast love, my deep
and boundless peace.
To this I hold: My hope is only Jesus,
For my life is wholly bound to His.
Oh, how strange and divine,
I can sing, “All is mine.”
Yet not I, but through Christ in me.

[Verse 2]
The night is dark,
but I am not forsaken.
For by my side, the Savior He will stay.
I labor on in weakness and rejoicing,
For in my need His power is displayed.
To the I hold:
My Shepherd will defend me,
Through the deepest
valley He will lead.
Oh, the night has been won,
and I shall overcome,
Yet not I, but through Christ in me.

[Verse 3]
No fate I dread,
I know I am forgiven.
The future sure,
the price it has been paid.
For Jesus bled and
suffered for my pardon,
And He was raised
to overthrow the grave.
To this I hold:
My sin has been defeated,
Jesus now and ever is my plea.
Oh, the chains are released,
I can sing, “I am free,”
Yet not I, but through Christ in me.

[Verse 4]
With every breath,
I long to follow Jesus,
For He has said that
He will bring me home.
And day by day,
I know He will renew me,
Until I stand with joy
before the throne.
To this I hold:
My hope is only Jesus,
All the glory evermore to Him.
When the race is complete,
still my lips shall repeat,
“Yet not I, but through Christ in me.
Yet not I, but through Christ in me.
Yet not I, but through Christ in me.”

[Verse 1]
What is our hope in life and death?
Christ alone, Christ alone.
What is our only confidence?
That our souls to Him belong.
Who holds our days within His hand?
What comes, apart from His command?
And what will keep us to the end?
The love of Christ, in which we stand.

[Chorus]
O sing, “Hallelujah!”
Our hope springs eternal.
O sing, “Halleujah!”
Now and ever we confess:
Christ our hope in life and death.

[Verse 2]
What truth can calm the troubled soul?
God is good, God is good.
Where is His grace
and goodness known?
In our great Redeemer’s blood.
Who holds our faith when fears arise?
Who stands above the stormy trial?
Who sends the waves
that bring us nigh
Unto the shore, the rock of Christ?

[Chorus]
O sing, “Hallelujah!”
Our hope springs eternal.
O sing, “Halleujah!”
Now and ever we confess:
Christ our hope in life and death.

[Verse 3]
Unto the grave, what will we sing?
“Christ, He lives! Christ, He lives!”
And what reward will heaven bring?
Everlasting life with Him.
There we will rise to meet the Lord,
Then sin and death will be destroyed,
And we will feast in endless joy,
When Christ is ours forevermore.

[Chorus X2]
O sing, “Hallelujah!”
Our hope springs eternal.
O sing, “Halleujah!”
Now and ever we confess:
Christ our hope in life and death.

[Ending]
Now and ever we confess:
Christ our hope in life and death.

[Verse 1]
Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling,
Calling for you and for me;
See, on the portals
He’s waiting and watching,
Watching for you and for me.

[Chorus]
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary come home;
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home!

[Verse 2]
Why should we tarry
when Jesus is pleading,
Pleading for you and for me?
Why should we linger
and heed not His mercies,
Mercies for you and for me?

[Chorus]
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary come home;
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home!

[Verse 3]
Time is now fleeting,
the moments are passing,
Passing from you and from me;
Shadows are gathering,
deathbeds are coming,
Coming for you and for me.

[Chorus]
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary come home;
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home!

[Verse 4]
Oh! For the wonderful love
He has promised,
Promised for you and for me;
Though we have sinned
He has mercy and pardon,
Pardon for you and for me.

[Chorus]
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary come home;
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home!
