Great Speckled Bird Lyrics

(Roy Carter - Guy Smith)

What a beautiful thought I am thinking
Concerning the great speckled bird
Remember her 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 they find no mistakes.

I am glad I have learned of her meekness
I'm proud that my name is in the book
For I want to be one never fearing the face
Of my Saviour's true look.

When he comes descending from heaven
On the cloud as he write in his word
I'll be joyfully carried to meet him
On the wings of that great speckled bird...
