His Eye Is On the Sparrow
by Michael W. Smith

Album: Hymns II - Shine on Us

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.
