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, A constant Friend is He
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
Tho' by the path he leadeth
But one step I may see
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me.

Chorus:

Whenever I am tempted
Whenever clouds arise
When song gives place to sighing
When hope within me dies
I draw the closer to Him
From care He sets me fire
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me.
