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. With all the other birds flocking 'round her, She is so despised by all the flock. The Great Speckled Bird in the bible representing the great church of God. Desiring to lower her standards, They watch every that she makes. They long to find fault with her teachings, But really they find no mistakes. I'm glad I have learned of her meekness. I am proud that my name is in her book. For I want to be one never fearing The faith of my Savior's true love. When He cometh, descending from heaven On the clouds as He writes in His word, I'll be joyfully carried to meet Him On the wings of that great speckled bird. 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. On the pages of God's holy word.
