Artist/Band: Lauryn Hill
Lyrics for Song: His Eye Is On The Sparrow
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Lauryn Hill



why should I feel discouraged
why should the shadows come
why should my heart feel 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 over me
his eye is on the sparrow
and i know he watches me

i sing because i'm happy
i sing because i'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
and i know he watches me (he watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
and i know he watches
i know he watches
i know he watches me

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
He watches me
I know
He watches
Me
