His Eye Is on the Sparrow Lyrics

Why should I feel disgrace and why should the shadows come
Why should my heart feel lonely and long for a heavenly home
When Jesus is my fortress and my constant frantisy
His eye is on the sparrow and I know he cares for me
His eye is on the sparrow and I know God watches over me
I sing because my soul is happy and I sing because I'm free
For his eye is on the sparrow and I know God watches over me
Yes I sing because my soul is happy and I sing because I'm free
For his eye is on the sparrow and I know God watches over you and me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
