His Eye Is on the Sparrow
Dottie West · The Essential Dottie West [RCA] [1996]
(Traditional)
Why should I feel disgrace
And why should the shadows come
Why should my heart feel lonely
And long for a heavenly home?
When Jesus is my fortress
And my constant frantasy
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he cares for me.
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know God watches over me
I sing because my soul is happy
And I sing because I'm free.
For his eye is on the sparrow
And I know God watches over me
Yes, I sing because my soul is happy
And I sing because I'm free.
For his eye is on the sparrow
And I know God watches over you and me...
Why should I feel disgrace
And why should the shadows come
Why should my heart feel lonely
And long for a heavenly home?
When Jesus is my fortress
And my constant frantasy
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he cares for me.
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know God watches over me
I sing because my soul is happy
And I sing because I'm free.
For his eye is on the sparrow
And I know God watches over me
Yes, I sing because my soul is happy
And I sing because I'm free.
For his eye is on the sparrow
And I know God watches over you and me...
