His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me;

His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.

I sing because I’m free,

For His eye is on the sparrow,

And I know He watches me

I don’t need to feel defeated/ depressed/ discouraged/

My God is working in my life to bring about Joy and Hapiness
