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, a 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.
I sing because I'm happy. I sing because I'm free.
His eye is on the sparrow and I know He watches me.
Whenever I am tempted. Whenever clouds arrive.
When a song gets played beside him, when hope is in his eye,
I draw closer to him, but can he set 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.
His eye is on the sparrow and I know he watches me.
O-o-o I sing because I'm happy and I sing because I'm free.
His eye is on the sparrow and I know he watches me.
And I know He watches... I know He watches...
I know He watches Me-e-e-e-e-e-e.
