  			G                G7           C 
What a beautiful thought I am thinking 

   D7                         G 
Concerning the great speckled bird 

                    G7        C 
And to know that my name is recorded 

       D7                  G 
On the pages of God's Holy Word 


            G7        C 
Desiring to lower her standard 

     D7                        G 
They watch every move that she makes 

                  G7             C 
They long to find fault with her teachings 

    D7                     G 
But really she makes no mistake 


                 G7             C 
I am glad I have learned of her meekness 

     D7                          G 
I am glad that my name is on her book 

                 G7        C 
For I want to be one never fearing 

    D7                   G 
The face of my Savior to look 


                   G7              C 
And when He cometh descending from heaven 

     D7                        G 
On a cloud like He said in His Word 

                 G7              C 
I'll be joyfully carried to meet Him 

       D7                          G 
On the wings of the great speckled bird
