Why should I feel discouraged

Why should the shadows come

Why should my heart feel lonely

And long for heaven and home?

When jesus is my portion

My constant friend

Is he

His eye is on the sparrow

I know he watches me

His eye is on the sparrow

I know he watches me

I sing because Im happy

I sing because Im free

His eye is on the sparrow

I know he watches me

His eye, his eye is on the sparrow

I know he watches

I know he watches

I know he watches me

I sing because Im happy

I sing because Im free

His eye is on the sparrow

I know, I know, I know he watches over

He watches over me
