His Eye Is on the Sparrow

Author: Civilla D. Martin Meter: Irregular Appears in 108 hymnals Topics: God, His Guidance and Care 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 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. 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. 2 "Let not your heart be troubled," His tender words I hear; And resting on His goodness, I lose my doubt and fear. 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. 3 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. [Chorus] Used With Tune: SPARROW

Author: James Montgomery Appears in 599 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Guidance and Care First Line: The Lord is my Shepherd; no want shall I know Lyrics: 1 The Lord is my Shepherd; no want shall I know.I feed in green pastures, safe-folded I rest.He leadeth my soul where the still waters flow,Restores me when wand'ring, redeems when oppressed;Restores me when wand'ring, redeems when oppressed.2 Thro' the valley and shadow of death though I stray,Since Thou art my Guardian, no evil I fear.Thy rod shall defend me, Thy staff be my stay.No harm can befall, with my Comforter near;No harm can befall, with my Comforter near.3 In the midst of affliction my table is spread;With blessings unmeasured my cup runneth o'er;With perfume and oil Thou anointest my head.Oh, what shall I ask of Thy providence more?Oh, what shall I ask of Thy providence more?4 Let goodness and mercy, my bountiful God,Still follow my steps till I meet Thee above.I seek by the path which my forefathers trod,Thro' the land of their sojourn, Thy kingdom of love;Thro' the land of their sojourn, Thy kingdom of love.
