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 Heav'n and home?

When Jesus is my portion,

My constant Friend is He:

His eye is on the sparrow,

And I know He cares for me;

His eye is on the sparrow,

And I know He watches me.

I sing because I'm happy, (I’m happy)

I sing because I'm free, (I’m free)

For His eye is on the sparrow,

And I know He watches me.

"Let not your heart be troubled,"

His tender word I hear,

And resting on His goodness,

I lose my doubts and fear;

Though by the path He leads me

But one step I may see:

His eye is on the sparrow,

And I know He watches me;

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 the closer to Him,

From care He sets me free:

His eye is on the sparrow,

And I know He cares for me;

His eye is on the sparrow,

And I know He watches me.
