His Eye Is On The Sparrow (Live)

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? My 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, 
For His eye is on the sparrow, 
And I know He watches me.

"Let not your heart be troubled," His tender word 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 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, 
For His eye is on the sparrow, 
And I know He watches me.

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 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, 
For His eye is on the sparrow, 
And I know He watches me.
