His Eye Is On the Sparrow...



I would absolutely adore to own this! You can buy it HERE..

My ALL TIME FAVORITE hymn to sing, or listen to in the entire world is "His Eye Is On The Sparrow". This song has deep meaning for me. It speaks to me, soothes me, inspires me, delights me, enriches me, nourishes me, and feeds my soul. The words to this hymn, is a song that I sing in my heart each and every day. I am so Glad that Jesus loves me, even though I am only his little sparrow.

I posted the words to this most favorite hymn the day I was baptized.
I sat for a long time that evening trying to find the adequate words to express how that momentous and amazing experience meant and felt... but none were quite as right as the song, that is the song, that sings in my heart.


HIS EYE IS ON THE SPARROW...

Why should I feel discouraged,
Why should the shadows come,
Why should my heart be lonely,
And long for heav'n and home,
When Jesus is my portion,
My constant Friend is He;
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.

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.

"Let not your heart be troubled,
"His tender word I hear,
And resting on His goodness,
I lose my doubts and fears,
Tho' by the path He leadeth,
But one step I may see;
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.

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.

No matter what my mood; happy, sad, lonely, joyful, prayerful, peaceful, anxious, or upset. This beautiful song of praise fills me up!
