Concerning a great speckle bird.
Remember her name is recorded,
On the pages of God's Holy Word.
With all the other birds flocking 'round her,
She is so despised by the squad.
The great speckle bird in 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 teachings,
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 Savior's true look.
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 speckle bird.

All the other birds flocked against her.
They envy her glory and fame.
They hate her because she is chosen,
And has not denied her dear name.
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.
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.
What a wonderful word is recorded,
By the prophet of God in His Word,
Of His church and all those who are faithful,
And are like to that great speckle bird.
I am longing the day of her coming.
When friends that are gone I shall see,
In robes and a crown of bright glory,
They are waiting in heaven for me.
