An interpretation on the piano. Originally by Civilla D. Martin and composer Charles H. Gabriel. 1 Why should I feel discouraged, Why should the shadows come, Why should my heart be lonely, And long for heav’n and home; When Jesus is my portion? My constant Friend is he; His eye is on the sparrow, And I know he watches me; His eye is on the sparrow, And I know he watches me. Refrain: I sing because I’m happy, I sing because I’m free; For his eye is on the sparrow, And I know he watches me.
