Looked out the window this morning
Saw a sparrow fall to the ground
Combed my hair and some fell out
And I knew that God was around
The Bible says not a sparrow falls
Without my Father knowing
The Bible says he counts my hairs
Even when they're coming and going
God is watching over me never shuts his eyes
God is watching over me never gets surprised
God is watching over me vigilant and wise
God is watching over me and one day I will rise
Looked up the street on a sunny day
Saw a bully picking his victim
Later in the week it was raining hard
When the landlord came to evict him
The Bible says the sun will shine
On the evil and the righteous
The Bible says the rain will fall
On helpers and those who fight us
God is watching over me never shuts his eyes
God is watching over me never gets surprised
God is watching over me vigilant and wise
God is watching over me and one day I will rise
Down at the corner the light turned red
But the truck just kept on coming
And that was the end of the hitchhiker's run
Won't be doing any more thumbing
The Bible says you can make your plans
But you're really just proposing
The Bible says you can cast the dice
But God does all the disposing
God is watching over me never shuts his eyes
God is watching over me never gets surprised
God is watching over me vigilant and wise
God is watching over me and one day I will rise
