In fact, the song has even been called one of the most recorded gospel songs of all time with notable covers from Alison Krauss and Alan Jackson.

Albert was picking cotton on his family farm when the words to the classic hymn came into his mind. From that moment, it took Albert three more years to complete the iconic song.

“Some bright morning when this life is over, I'll fly away

To that home on God's celestial shore, I'll fly away

I'll fly away, oh glory. I'll fly away in the morning

When I die, Hallelujah by and by, I'll fly away”
