Great Speckled Bird Lyrics - Ernest Tubb

What a beautiful thought I am thinking concerning a 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 

[ steel ] 

I am glad I have learned of her meekness and 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 look 

When he comes descending from heaven on the cloud as he writes in his words 

I'll be joyfully carried to meet him on the wings of that great speckled bird
