His Eye Is On The Sparrow

C
Why should I feel discouraged,
F                                   C      G/B
Why should the shadows come,
G                    A7            D   F
Why should my heart be lonely,
G                                C  G
And long for heav'n and home,
         C                         G    C                        F  A7 D
When Jesus is my portion, A constant Friend is He;
     C                  F         A
His eye is on the sparrow,
         C/G       G           C
And I know He watches me.

Chorus:

 G                       C    
I sing because I'm happy,
 G                       C
I sing because I'm free;
                              F/A
For His eye is on the sparrow,
        C/G        G          C
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
