<b>His eye is on the sparrow</b> by <i>Gospel</i><br />Mrs. Civilla D. Martin

1. Why should I feel discouraged,

Why should the shadows come,

Why should my heart be lonely,

And long for heav'n and home,

When Jesus is my portion,

My constant Friend is He;

His eye is on the sparrow,

And I know He watches me.

Chorus:

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.

2. "Let not your heart be troubled,"

His tender word I hear,

And resting on His goodness,

I lose my doubts and fears,

Tho' by the path He leadeth,

But one step I may see;

His eye is on the sparrow,

And I know He watches me.

Chorus

3. Whenever I am tempted,

Whenever clouds arise,

When song gives 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.

Chorus
