So why am I only showing you part of the music?

It turns out that, unbeknownst to me, this song is STILL UNDER COPYRIGHT.  It's been up on both of my websites for a while,until an alert musician wrote to share this news with me.  (I'm usually very careful about copyright, but in this particular case I fooled myself, perhaps because of the old-timey feeling of "I'll Fly Away.")

Still under copyright? Down must go all my free sheets!

I am very sorry, but I cannot give it away for free.

SheetMusicPlus has publishing rights to it, and I do make arrangements for them, so I re-did some sheet music details with the piano arrangement and have placed the music over there, for sale.  It is $5.00, of which I will receive 50 cents.

I have also placed the guitar tabs version in the keys of D and G over at SheetMusicPlus.

For the lead sheets, I decided to attach the vocal duet I made long ago, as it is very pretty and satisfying, so you will find the lead sheets-plus-duets over at SheetMusicPlus as well.

Making nice-looking PDFs is time-consuming, so I'm not finished yet!  Here are the available arrangements so far:

This joyful hymn is actually about departing this world, and what happens then

No more shadows, but the bright gladness of looking forward to meeting again friends and family at that home on God's celestial shore...

With its promise of hope and everlasting joy, it is a hymn suitable for a funeral or memorial.

I'll Fly Away was the favorite hymn of my young friend Gabrielle , and at her memorial service, friends and family sang this song, plus another that can be found on a page dedicated to her.

I'll Fly Away is easy even for young fiddlers to play, and the harmony, whether for singers or instrumentalists, is fairly predictable, but well-matched to the melody.

Two fiddles playing this as a duet sound great together, and one of my younger vocal students learned the harmony without much of a struggle.

This sheet music is fun to sing and play, especially in an ensemble -- I know your students will enjoy it!
