Lyrics

Why should I feel discouraged, why should the shadows come
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

Refrain

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;
Though 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

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

Whenever I am tempted, whenever clouds arise
When songs give 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

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
