Why should I be discouraged and why should the shadows fall?
Why should my heart be lonely and long for heaven 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.
I sing because I’m happy;
I sing because I’m free;
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me.
I sing because I’m happy;
I sing because I’m free;
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me.
And I know He watches me…
