Tommy collins great speckled bird lyrics

What a beautiful thought I am thinking concerning the great speckled bird

Remember her name is recorded on the pages of pure shining gold

All the other birds flock around her she is so despised by the squad

But the great speckled bird in the Bible is one with the great church of God

She is spreading her wings for a journey that she's going to meet by and by

When the trumpet shall sound in the morning she will rise and go up in the sky

[ guitar ]

Oh I am glad I have learned of her meekness

Oh I'm glad that my name's on the book

For I want to be one never fearing on the face of my Saviour to look

When he comes descending from heaven on the cloud as he write in his word

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