His Eye Is on the Sparrow

Why should I be discouraged

Why should the shadow's come

Why should my heart be lonely

And long for heaven and home?



When Jesus is my portion

My 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 am free

His eye is on the sparrow

And I know he watches me.



Let not your heart be troubled

His tender words I see

And resting on his goodness

I leave my staff and sheaf.



So by the path he leadeth

But one step I may see

His eye is on the sparrow

And I know he watches me.



And I sing because I'm happy

And I sing because I'm free

His eye is on the sparrow

And I know he watches.



His eye is on the sparrow

And I know he watches...
