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. 2 “Let not your heart be troubled,” His tender words I hear; And resting on His goodness, I lose my doubt and fear. 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 songs 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.

Lo, here I fall, my Savior!

My heart an altar, and Thy love the flame. Amen. Scripture: Galatians 5:25 Used With Tune: MORECAMBE
