[Verse 1]
Why should I be lonely
Long for heaven and home
When Jesus is my portion
And a constant friend I know

[Chorus]
Oh, I sing because I'm happy
And I sing because I'm free
For His eye is on the sparrow
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He's watching me

[Verse 2]
Why should I be troubled
When His tender word I hear
No, I rest on His goodness
In my doubt and in my fear

[Chorus]
And I sing because I'm happy
And I sing because I'm free, yeah
For His eye is on the sparrow
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know
Yeah, I sing because He loves me
And I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
His eye is on the sparrow
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He's watching me, yeah
He's watching me
He's watching you, oh
He's watching me
