His Eye Is On The Sparrow lyrics

Why should I be discouraged

Why should the shadow ever come

Why should my heart feel lonely

Why should I long for heaven and home.

When Jesus is my portion

My constant friend is he

His eye stays on that sparrow, yeah

I know he watches me.

I sing because I'm happy

I sing because I've been set free

His eye is on the sparrow

I know he watches over me.

Oh, whenever I am tempted

Whenever a storm, they rise

When song give way to sign.

Oh, when hope, hope within me dies

I draw closer to him

From care he sets me free

His eye is on the sparrow, baby

I know he watches over me.

So, I sing because he makes me happy

I sing because I've been set free

His eye is on that sparrow

I know he watches

I know he watches, yes, I know

He watches me...
