[Verse 1]

D                                 G                      D
Why should I feel dis - couraged? Why should the shadows come?
B7                       Em        A7                      D
Why should my heart  be  lone - ly and long for heaven and home
                                   D7                 G    Em
When Je - sus is my por - tion my  constant friend is He:
    A7            D                      A7      D
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.
    D7            G              D       A7      D
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.


[Chorus]

  A7               D
I sing because I'm happy,
  A7               D      D7
I sing because I'm free;
        G             D      G
For His eye is on the spar - row,
      D       A7      D
and I know He watches me.


[Verse 2]

D                                 G                      D
"Let not your heart be troubled," His  ten - der  word I hear;
B7                       Em        A7                      D
And rest - ing  on  His  goodness, I lose  my  doubt  and  fear,
                                   D7                 G    Em
Though by the path he leadeth, but one  step  I  may  see:
    A7            D                      A7      D
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.
    D7            G              D       A7      D
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.


[Chorus]

  A7               D
I sing because I'm happy,
  A7               D      D7
I sing because I'm free;
        G             D      G
For His eye is on the spar - row,
      D       A7      D
and I know He watches me.


[Verse 3]

D                                 G                      D
When – ev - er I  am temp - ted,  when - ever clouds a - rise,
B7                       Em        A7                      D
When songs give place to sighing   when hope with - in me  dies,
                                   D7                 G    Em
I  draw the clos - er to Him from  care  He  sets me  free:
    A7            D                      A7      D
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.
    D7            G              D       A7      D
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.


[Chorus]

  A7               D
I sing because I'm happy,
  A7               D      D7
I sing because I'm free;
        G             D      G
For His eye is on the spar - row,
      D       A7      D
and I know He watches me.
