His Eye Is on the Sparrow
Author: Civilla D. Martin, 1860-1948 Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #642 (1999) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D with refrain First Line: Why should I feel discouraged Refrain First Line: I sing because I'm happy Lyrics: 1 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.
Refrain:
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.
2 “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. [Refrain]
3 Whenever I am tempted,
Whenever clouds arise,
When song 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. [Refrain] Topics: Gospel Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: HIS EYE IS ON THE SPARROW
