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 heavenly 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

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 loose 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 me

His eye is on the sparrow

And I know He watches me



Whenever I am tempted

Whenever clouds arise

When song gives place to sighing

When hope within me dies

I draw the closer to Him

For 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
