Lauryn Hill - His Eye Is On The Sparrow Lyrics






[Tanya Blount:]
Why should I feel discouraged
Why should the shadows come
Why should my heart feel lonely
And long for heaven and home

When Jesus is my portion
A constant friend is he
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he watches over me
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he watches me

[Lauryn Hill:]
I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow

And I know he watches me
[Tanya:] He watches me
[Lauryn:] His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he watches
[Tanya:] I know he watches
[Lauryn:] I know he watches me

[Lauryn and Tanya:]
I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow

[Lauryn:] And I know he watches me
[Tanya:] He watches me
[Lauryn and Tanya:] His eye is on the sparrow
[Tanya:] And I know he watches me
[Lauryn:] He watches me
[Tanya:] He watches me, I know
[Lauryn and Tanya:] He watches me

    Thank you Lord for giving me such a wonderful bunch of nuts for a family. They are truly my world. Thank you for your patience and blessings and mercy. Would you just throw down a blanket of divine protection over my family in this time and let us know that you have done a wonderful work in our lives. Please Lord give them peace of mind and love them though rough times, while understanding that none of us are a finished product yet. Show us what is still possible, that it may be used for your glory. Thank you Father. In Jesus name. Amen.

    I miss him everyday...rest in peace and paradise 07/20/1936-11/03/2015 🤍🕊
