Jessica Simpson - His Eyes Is On The Sparrow lyrics

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 [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 "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 [Chorus] 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]
