What a beautiful thought I am thinking concerning a great speckled bird
|
Remember her name is recorded on the pages of Gods' Holy Word
|
|
With all the other birds flocking round her, she is so despised by the squad
|
The Great Speckled Bird is the Bible representing the Great Church of God
|
|
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 am proud that my name is on her book
|
For I want to be one never fearing the face of my Saviour's true love
|
When he cometh descending from heaven on the clouds as he writes in his words
|
I'll be joyfully carried to meet him on the wings of that great speckled bird
