His Eye Is on the Sparrow

Author: Civilla Martin, 1866-1948 Meter: Irregular Appears in 114 hymnals Topics: Praise to God First Line: Why should I feel discouraged? Refrain First Line: I sing because I'm happy Lyrics: 1 Why should I feel discouraged? Why should the shadows come? Why should my heart be lonely and long for heaven 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’m happy) I sing because I’m free, (I’m free) for his eye is on the sparrow, and I know he watches me. 2 “Let not your heart be troubled,” his tender word I hear, and resting on his goodness, I lose my doubts and fears; though by the path he leadeth but one step I may see: 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] 3 Whenever I am tempted, whenever clouds arise, when song gives place to sighing, when hope within me dies, I draw the closer to him; from care he sets me free: 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] Used With Tune: SPARROW

Come, Holy Spirit, Heavenly Dove

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,244 hymnals Topics: Pentecost/Praise to God, The Holy Spirit Lyrics: 1 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove, With all Thy quickening powers; Kindle a flame of sacred love In these cold hearts of ours. 2 Look how we grovel here below, Fond of these earthly toys; Our souls, how heavily they go, To reach eternal joys! 3 In vain we tune our formal songs, In vain we strive to rise; Hosannas languish on our tongues, And our devotion dies. 4 And shall we then for ever live At this poor dying rate? Our love so faint, so cold to Thee, And Thine to us so great! 5 Come, Holy Spirit, heavenly Dove, With all Thy quickening powers; Come, shed abroad a Saviour’s love, And that shall kindle ours. AMEN.

Author: Harriet Auber Meter: 8.6.8.4 Appears in 577 hymnals Topics: Pentecost/Praise to God, The Holy Spirit Lyrics: 1 Our blest Redeemer, ere He breathed His tender last farewell, A Guide, a Comforter, bequeathed With us to dwell. 2 He came in tongues of living flame To teach, convince, subdue; All-powerful as the wind He came, As viewless too. 3 He comes, sweet influence to impart, A gracious, willing guest, While He can find one humble heart Wherein to rest. 4 And His that gentle voice we hear, Soft as the breath of even, That checks each thought, that calms each fear, And speaks of heaven. 5 Spirit of purity and grace, Our weakness, pitying, see; O make our hearts Thy dwelling-place, And worthier Thee!

Holy Spirit, Faithful Guide

Author: M M Wells Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 706 hymnals Topics: Pentecost/Praise to God, The Holy Spirit Lyrics: 1 Holy Spirit, faithful Guide, Ever near the Christian’s side, Gently lead us by the hand, Pilgrims in a desert land; Weary souls fore’er rejoice, While they hear that sweetest voice, Whispering softly, “Wanderer, come! Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.” 2 Ever present, truest Friend, Ever near Thine aid to lend, Leave us not to doubt and fear, Groping on in darkness drear. When the storms are raging sore, Hearts grow faint, and hopes give o’er– Whisper softly, “Wanderer, come! Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.” 3 When our days of toil shall cease, Waiting still for sweet release, Nothing left but heaven and prayer, Wondering if our names are there; Wading deep the dismal flood, Pleading naught but Jesus’ blood, Whisper softly, “Wanderer, come! Follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.” AMEN. Used With Tune: GUIDE

[Refrain] 3 Like the rain that falls from heaven, Like the sunlight from the sky, So the Holy Ghost is given, Coming on us from on high. [Refrain] 4 See, a fruitful field is growing, Blessed fruit of righteousness; And the streams of life are flowing In the lonely wilderness. [Refrain] 5 What a wonderful salvation, When we always see His face. What a perfect habitation, What a quiet resting place. [Refrain] Used With Tune: BLESSED QUIETNESS
