Cat. #0943 (MFH #229) - As sung by Ollie Gilbert, Mountain View, Arkansas on February 9, 1970
VERSE 1
What a beauytiful thought I am thinking
Concerning th great speckled bird
Remember her name is recorded
On th pages of God's Holy word
VERSE 2
Desiring to lower her standing
They watch ever move that she makes
They long to find fault with her teachin'
But really, they find no mistake
VERSE 3
I am glad I have learned of her meekness
I am proud that my names on her book
For I long to be one never fearin'
On my Saviour's face to look
VERSE 3
When He comes descending from Heaven
That in th word, that He writes in His word
I'll be joyfully carried to meet Him
On the wings of th great speckled bird
