bryan andrew wilson - his eye on the sparrow lyrics

why should i feel discouraged
why should the shadows come
why should my heart be lonely
and long for heaven, heaven and home
when, when jesus is my portion
my constant friend is he

oh, oh+oh, his eye is on the sparrow
and i know he watched, watched it over me
i sing because i’m happy (happy)
i sing because i’m free (free free free)
for his eye, his eye is on the sparrow
and i know, i know he watches over me
