YOUR EYE IS ON THE SPARROW [ADAPTED]

Words: Mrs. C.D. Martin
Music: Charles H. Gabriel

Your (C)eye is (C7)on the (F)sparrow, (Fm)
And I (C)know You're (G)watching (C)me.

(C)Why should I feel discouraged,
(F)Why should the shadows (C)come,
(A7)Why should my heart be (Dm)lonely,
(G)And long for Heav'n and (C)Home,
When Jesus, You're my portion? (C#dim)-(G)
My (C)constant (C7)Friend You'll (F)be. (A7)-(Dm)
Your (G)eye is on the (C)sparrow, (C#dim)
And I (G)know You're watching (C)me;
Your (C7)eye is on the (C)sparrow, (Fm)
And I (C)know You're (G)watching (C)me.

Chorus:
I (G)sing because I'm (C)happy! [Yes, I'm happy!]
I (G)sing because I'm (C)free!
For Your eye is (C7)on the (F)sparrow, (Fm)
And I (C)know You're (G)watching (C)me.

"Let not your heart be troubled,"
(F)Your tender Word I (C)hear,
(A7)And resting on Your (Dm)goodness,
(G)I lose my doubts and (C)fears.
Though (C)by the path You lead me, (C#dim)-(G)
But (C)one step I may (F)see, (A7)-(Dm)
Your (G)eye is on the (C)sparrow (C#dim)
And I (G)know You're watching (C)me;
Your (C7)eye is on the (F)sparrow, (Fm)
And I (C)know You're (G)watching (C)me.

[Repeat Chorus]

(C)Whenever I am tempted,
(F)Whenever clouds (C)arise,
(A7)When songs give place to (Dm)sighing,
(G)When hope within me (C)dies,
I draw the closer to You; (C#dim)-(G)
From (C)care You set me (F)free. (A7)-(Dm)
Your (G)eye is on the (C)sparrow (C#dim)
And I (G)know You care for (C)me;
Your (C7)eye is on the (F)sparrow, (Fm)
And I (C)know You (G)care for (C)me.

[Repeat Chorus Two Times]
