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 watches me
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me

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

I sing because I'm happy
And I sing because l'm free
For His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me
