The Great Speckled Bird - Johnny Cash
What a beautiful thought I am thinking
Concerning the great speckled bird
And to know that my name is recorded
On the pages of God's holy word
Desiring to lower her standards
They watch every move that she makes
They long to find fault with her teaching
But really she makes no mistakes
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 Saviour to look
And when He come up descending from Heaven
On a cloud like He said in His word
I'll be joyfully carried to meet Him
On the wings of the great speckled bird
This song refers to an Angel's humbleness and meekness that was originally sought to be a weakness and was at times insulted by some. The angel however knew that God was within us all even at this very moment, concealed, hidden, CLOUDED. As the angel focused her life into God , to see and manifest God, He came in a cloud to His Angel and set right the way. Even into the thugs, God became them, and was not offended by His angel looking to see Him, and the Angel had done no wrong to the thugs but showed meakness and humility for knowing that reality is much more then she knew. God became everything then and the wings wrapped around her and carried her away, as living reality moving around her.
