Why should I feel discouraged, why should the shadows come,
Why should my heart be 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,
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.
(Chorus)
I sing because I’m happy,
I sing because 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 fears;
Though by the path He leads us, 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.
(Chorus) 2X
