His Eye Is On The Sparrow

Why should I feel discouraged?

Why should the shadows come?

Why should my heart be lonely

And long for heaven and home?

When Jesus is my portion

A constant friend is He

His eye is on the sparrow

And I know He watches me

I sing because I'm happy

I sing because I'm free

For His eye is on the sparrow

And I know He watches me

Let not your heart be troubled

His tender work I hear

And resting on His goodness

I lose my doubts and fears

Though by the path He leadeth

But one step I may see

His eye is on the sparrow

And I know He watches me

I sing because I'm happy

I sing because I'm free

For His eye is on the sparrow

And I know He watches me

Whenever I am tempted

Whenever clouds arise

When songs give place to sighing

When hope within me dies...

I draw then closer to Him

From care He sets me free

His eye is on the sparrow

And I know He cares for me

I sing because I'm happy

I sing because I'm free

For His eye is on the sparrow

And I know He watches me

His eye is on the sparrow

And I know He watches me
