His Eye Is on the Sparrow Lyrics

Why should I feel discouraged
And why should the shadows come
And why should my heart feel lonely
And long for heaven and home
When Jesus is my portion
My constant friend is He
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I am free
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 fears
Though by the path He leadeth
But one step I may see
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches
I know He watches,
I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I am 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
