His Eye Is On The Sparrow Lyrics - Irresistible - Jessica Simpson

Why should I feel discouraged, 

Why should the shadows come, 

Why should my heart be lonely, 

And long for heav'n 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, 

Tho' 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
