Why should I feel discouraged
And why should the shadows come
Oh and why should my heart feel lonely
And long for heaven, heaven and home
When Jesus is my portion
A constant friend is He
And His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he watches over me
Chorus
And I sing because I’m happy
And I sing because I’m free
For His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches over me
