Why should I feel disgrace and why should the shadows come
Why should my heart feel lonely and long for a heavenly home
When Jesus is my fortress and my constant frantisy
His eye is on the sparrow and I know he cares for me
His eye is on the sparrow and I know God watches over me
I sing because my soul is happy and I sing because I'm free
For his eye is on the sparrow and I know God watches over me
Yes I sing because my soul is happy and I sing because I'm free
For his eye is on the sparrow and I know God watches over you and me
