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
A constant friend is he
His eye is on the sparrow
And i know he watches over 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 (he watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
And i know he watches
I know he watches
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 (he watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
And i know he watches me (he watches me)
He watches me
I never knew
He watches
Meee...
