The great speckled bird

[Boaz]

Most likely many young folks never heard it . Probably been a while since you old folks heard it , lol . Not a hymn but a good song . Was thinking about GOD's church this morning and it came to mind . Listen to the simple words .

Wow, what an eye opener.

It looks like she had come and gone before I got into country.

Great stuff!

That was my dad's favorite song. They played it at his funeral

Thanks for the memory

Kitty Wells! Saw her long ago with her husband Johnnie Wright in a benefit concert in a high school in Manalapan, NJ. Blizzard conditions limited the crowd to about 50 people. After the show, we were able to chat awhile. Very charming folks. Thanks for the memory jog.

Jeremiah 12 9
Mine heritage is unto me as a speckled bird, the birds round about are against her; come ye, assemble all the beasts of the field, come to devour.

She was good ! Thank you for the verse .(wondered if someone would mention it !)

I never hear that song without its touching me deeply. Simple songs tend to do that, don't they?
