His Eye Is on the Sparrow Songtext
von Sandi Patty

Why should I feel discouraged?
Why should the shadows come?
Why should my heart be lonely
And long for heavens 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

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

I sing because I′m happy
And I sing because I'm free

His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches
Yes, I know He watches
I know He watches over me
