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, 
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, 
Tho' 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. 

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. 
His eye is on the sparrow, 
And I know He watches me. 

Chorus
