His Eye Is on the Sparrow
Embracing Divine Comfort: His Watchful Gaze on Life's Journey
Lyrics
Why should I feel discouraged, why should the shadows come,
Expressing a sense of discouragement and questioning the presence of shadows in life.
Why should my heart be lonely, and long for heaven and home,
Reflecting on loneliness and a yearning for a connection with heaven and home.
When Jesus is my portion? My constant friend is He:
Affirming faith in Jesus as a constant companion and source of support.

Highlighting the comforting belief that God watches over even the seemingly insignificant sparrow.
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.

I sing because I'm happy,
Expressing joy and happiness as a response to the knowledge that God cares and watches over.
I sing because I'm free,
Emphasizing freedom and liberation as a reason for singing.
For His eye is on the sparrow,
Reaffirming the idea that God's watchful eye is on the sparrow.
And I know He watches me.

"Let not your heart be troubled," His tender word I hear,
Quoting a comforting message, urging not to be troubled, and finding solace in God's words.
And resting on His goodness, I lose my doubts and fears;
Finding security and dispelling doubts and fears through reliance on God's goodness.
Though by the path He leadeth, but one step I may see;
Acknowledging the uncertainty of life's path but maintaining trust in God's guidance.
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me;
Reiterating the idea that God's watchful eye is on the sparrow, symbolizing divine care.

Whenever I am tempted, whenever clouds arise,
Describing moments of temptation and difficulty when clouds of uncertainty arise.
When songs give place to sighing, when hope within me dies,
Expressing a shift from singing to sighing when hope seems to fade.
I draw the closer to Him, from care He sets me free;
Turning towards God for comfort and freedom from cares during challenging times.
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me;
Reiterating the belief in God's watchful eye, providing assurance and freedom.
