His Eye Is On The Sparrow lyrics

Why should I feel discouraged,

Why should the shadows come,

Why should my heart be lonely,

And long for heavn and home,

When jesus is my portion,

My constant friend is he;

His eye is on the sparrow,

And I know he watches me.



Chorus:

I sing because Im happy,

I sing because Im 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 free;

His eye is on the sparrow,

And I know he watches me.



Chorus
