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 over 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
his eye is on the sparrow
and I know he watches me
he watches me, I know,
he watches me.
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 over 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
his eye is on the sparrow
and I know he watches me
he watches me, I know,
he watches me.
