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 know
he watches
me
