^CWhy should I feel discouraged? ^FWhy should the shadows ^Ccome? ^A7Why should my heart be ^Dmlonely ^GAnd long for heaven and ^Chome ^CWhen Jesus i^G7s my portion^C? My constant frien^Fd is He: ^GHis eye is on ^Cthe sparrow, an^Gd I know He watc^Ches me; ^CHis eye^C7 is on ^Fthe s^F7parrow, an^Cd I know^G He wat^Cches me. ^GI sing because I'^Cm happy, ^GI sing because I'^Cm free; ^CFor His^C7 eye is^F on th^F7e sparrow^C, and I ^G7know He ^Cwatches me.

^C"Let not your heart be troubled^F," His tender word I he^Car, ^A7And resting on His good^Dmness I ^Glose my doubts and fears^C, ^CTho' by the ^G7path He lead^Ceth, But one step I^F may see, ^GHis eye is on ^Cthe sparrow, an^Gd I know He watc^Ches me; ^CHis eye^C7 is on ^Fthe s^F7parrow, an^Cd I know^G He wat^Cches me. ^GI sing because I'^Cm happy, ^GI sing because I'^Cm free; ^CFor His^C7 eye is^F on th^F7e sparrow^C, and I ^G7know He ^Cwatches me.

^CWhenever I am tempted, Whenever^F doubts arise, ^{C A7}When songs give place t^Dmo sighi^Gng, When hope within me ^Cdies, ^CI draw the c^G7loser to Him^C, From cares He set^Fs me free, ^GHis eye is on ^Cthe sparrow, an^Gd I know He care^Cs for me; ^CHis eye^C7 is on ^Fthe s^F7parrow, an^Cd I know^G He car^Ces for me. ^GI sing because I'^Cm happy, ^GI sing because I'^Cm free; ^CFor His^C7 eye is^F on th^F7e sparrow^C, and I ^G7know He ^Cwatches me.
