His Eye is on the Sparrow (Hill & Blount)


Why should I feel discouraged and 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 over me.
His eye is on the sparrow and I know he watches over 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.

Let not your heart be troubled; these tender words I hear;
And resting on his goodness I lose my doubts and fears;
Though by the path He leadeth but one step I may see;
His eye is on the sparrow and I know He watches over me.
His eye is on the sparrow and I know He watches over me.

Refrain

Whenever I am tempted; whenever clouds arise;
When songs give 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 over me.
His eye is on the sparrow and I know He watches over me.

Refrain
