His Eye Is On The Sparrow

Why should I feel discouraged
And 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 over me

I sing because I am happy
I sing because I am free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches over me

Let not your heart be troubled
His tender words I hear
And resting on His goodness
I lose all my doubts and all of my fears
Tho’ by His path He leadeth
Tho’ just one step I may see
God’s eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches over me

This song reminds me of God’s sovereignty. Sometimes I thought that everything is out of control. There are many things that can make us become discouraged – may it be in our country’s political situation, price hike of almost all the goods in the market, career, love life, family, our own self, etcetera and etcetera… We need to be reminded that God is in control and we just have to trust Him!

What a comfort to know that there is a God who watches over us, who cares for us and who has the best plan for our lives!
