Roy Acuff - Great Speckled Bird lyrics



1.What a beautiful thought I amthinking

Concerning a great speckledbird

Remember her name is recorded

On thepages of God's Holy Word.

2. All the other birds are flocking 'round her

And she is despised by the squad

But the great speckled bird in the Bible

Is one with the great church of God.

3. All the other churches are against her

They envy her glory and fame

They hate her because she is chosen

And has not denied Jesus' name.

4. Desiring to lower her standard

They watch every move that she makes

They long to find fault with her teachings

But really they find no mistake.

5. She is spreading her wings for a journey

She's going to leave by and by

When the trumpet shall sound in the morning

She'll rise and go up in the sky.

6. In the presence of all her despisers

With a song never uttered before

She will rise and be gone in a moment

Till the great tribulation is o'er.

7. 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 Savior to look.

8. When He cometh descending from heaven

On the cloud that He writes in His Word

I'll be joyfully carried to meet Him

On the wings of that great speckled bird.
