The Great Speckled Bird 作词 : Johnny Cash, Nokie Edwards 作曲 : Johnny Cash, Nokie Edwards What a beautiful thought I am thinking Concerning a great speckled bird And to know that my name is recorded On the pages of God's Holy Word. Desiring to lower her standard They watch every move that she makes They long to find fault with her teachings But really they find no mistake. I am glad I have learned of her meekness I am glad that my name is on her book For I want to be one never fearing The face of my Savior to look. And 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 speckled bird.
