I'll Fly Away, is based on the old Negro Spiritual by the same name. It is a self portrait of sorts, not physically of course but spiritually and emotionally. As a Christian at this time and place I am locked into the world of Lot. Surrounded by things that grieve me and cause me pain. I can find no escape but for the promise of Christ and the life that awaits. It helps me get on with my day.
