his eye is on the sparrow

why should i feel discouraged?

tell me why should the shadows fall?

tell me why should my heart be lonely

and long for heaven and home?

when jesus is my portion

a constant friend

oh

is he

for his eye is on the sparrow

and i know he watches me

i sing because i'm so happy

everyday i sing because god made me free

yeah

oh

his eye is on the sparrow

oh yeah

and i know

said i know

i know that

i know that

i know

you can't tell me that i don't know

i know that he watches me
