His Eye Is On The Sparrow
Frank Mccomb Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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 me;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.
I sing because I'm happy,
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;
Though by the path He leadeth, but one step I may see;
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 happy,
I sing because I'm free,
For His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.
Whenever I am tempted, whenever clouds arise,
When songs give 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;
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.
The lyrics of Frank McComb's song "His Eye Is On The Sparrow" express a sense of hope and trust in God's constant presence and care. The song opens with a series of rhetorical questions, questioning why one should feel discouraged, lonely, or long for heaven and home when Jesus is present, and his constant friendship is there. The phrase "His eye is on the sparrow, and I know he watches me" is repeated throughout the song, emphasizing that God's watchful gaze is not only on the sparrow but on each of us. The singer finds joy in this knowledge, which is why they sing because they're happy and free. They're able to rest in the good word of God, and in turn, they release themselves from doubts and fears. Even when temptation or clouds arise, the singer finds comfort in drawing closer to God, who sets them free from their cares.

Why should the shadows come
Why should my heart feel lonely
And long for heaven and home
