His Eye Is On The Sparrow
Why should I feel discouraged,??â?¹??Â
Why should the shadows come,??â?¹??Â
Why should my heart be lonely,??â?¹??Â
And long for heav'n and home,??â?¹??Â
When Jesus is my portion,??â?¹??Â
My constant Friend is He;??â?¹??Â
His eye is on the sparrow,??â?¹??Â
And I know He watches me.??â?¹??Â
Chorus:??â?¹??Â
I sing because I'm happy,??â?¹??Â
I sing because I'm free;??â?¹??Â
For His eye is on the sparrow,??â?¹??Â
And I know He watches me.??â?¹??Â
"Let not your heart be troubled,"??â?¹??Â
His tender word I hear,??â?¹??Â
And resting on His goodness,??â?¹??Â
I lose my doubts and fears,??â?¹??Â
Tho' by the path he leadeth,??â?¹??Â
But one step I may see;??â?¹??Â
His eye is on the sparrow,??â?¹??Â
And I know He watches me.??â?¹??Â
Chorus:??â?¹??Â
Whenever I am tempted,??â?¹??Â
Whenever clouds arise,??â?¹??Â
When song gives place to sighing,??â?¹??Â
When hope within me dies,??â?¹??Â
I draw the closer to Him;??â?¹??Â
From care He sets me free;??â?¹??Â
His eye is on the sparrow,??â?¹??Â
And I know He watches me.
