The Great Speckled Bird Lyrics

The great speckled Bird

What a beautiful thought
I am thinking concerning
The great speckled bird

And to know that my name is recorded
On the pages of God's holy word
Desiring to lower her standards
They watch every move that she makes
They long to find fault with her teaching
But really she makes no mistakes

[ guitar ]

I am glad I have learned of her meekness
I am glad that my name is on her book
For I want to be one never fearing
The face of my Saviour to look

And when he come up descending
From heaven on a cloud like he said in his word
I'll be joyfully carried to meet him
On the wings of the great speckled bird
