ooh... why should I feel so discouraged

I wanna know why should the shadow come

Oh tell me why why should I feel lonely, so lonely

And long for heaven and a home



Since Jesus is my portion

A constant friend he is

His eye is on the sparrow

And I know he watches over me

His eye is on the sparrow

And I know he watches over me



I sing because I'm happy

And I sing because I'm free

His eye is on the sparrow

And I know Jesus watches me
