Why should I feel disgrace?
And why should the shadows come?
Why should my heart feel lonely
And long for a heavenly home?
When Jesus is my fortress
And my constant friend is He
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He cares for me
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know God watches over me
I sing because my soul is happy
And I sing because I'm free
For His eye is on the sparrow
And I know God watches over me
Yes, I sing because my soul is happy
And I sing because I'm free
For His eye is on the sparrow
And I know God watches over you and me
