[Verse]
Why should I feel discouraged?
And why should the shadows come?
And why should my heart feel so lonely
And long for heaven and home?
When Jesus is my portion
My constant friend is he
His eye in on the sparrow
And I know he watches me

[Chorus]
I sing because I'm happy, ooh
I sing because I'm free, oh-oh
His eye in on the sparrow
And I know he watches
And I know he watches
I know he watches me
I sing because I'm happy, oh-oh
I sing because I'm free, oh yeah yeah
His eye in on the sparrow
And I know he watches me, oh-oh
I sing because I'm happy, oh
I sing because I'm free, oh yeah
His eye in on the sparrow
And I know he watches over me
I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free, oh
His eye in on the sparrow
And I know he watches over me
Oh, I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free, free
His eye in on the sparrow
And I know he watches
And I know he watches
And I know he watches me
[Outro]
I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know
I know he watches me
