I remember Sunday morning Sittin' on Grandpa's knee The congregation singing Rock of Ages, cleft for me The preacher spoke of heaven And he warned about the fires of hell He taught the love of Jesus Drawing life from the living well Children, let not your life be troubled By things you can't do nothin' about If his eye is on the sparrow Then he sure won't let you down We were gathered by the Harpeth River It was close enough to Jordan for me When I came up from that water My sins had been set free Now I stand upon that promise I'm safe in the Master's hand And I don't have to worry
I'm gonna see the Promised Land Children, let not your life be troubled By things you can't do nothin' about If his eye is on the sparrow Then he sure won't let you down Glory Hallelujah Sing it right out loud If his eye is on the sparrow Then he sure won't let you down No, he sure won't let you down Let not your life be troubled By things you can't do nothin' about If his eye is on the sparrow Then he sure won't let you down Children, let not your life be troubled By things you can't do nothin' about If his eye is on the sparrow Then he sure won't let you down
