Verso 1

Someone asked the question
Why do we sing
When we lift our hands to Jesus
What do we really mean

Verso 2

Someone may be wondering
When we sing our song
At times we may be crying
And nothing's even wrong

Coro

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
That's the reason why I sing
Glory hallelujah
You're the reason why I sing
Glory hallelujah
You're the reason why I sing

Verso 3

And when the song is over
We've all said amen
In your heart just keep on singing
And the song will never end

Verso 4

And if somebody asks you
Was it just a show
Lift your hands and be a witness
And tell the whole world no

Verso 5

And when we cross that river
To study war no more
We will sing our song to Jesus
The One whom we adore

Coro

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
That's the reason why I sing
Glory hallelujah
I give the praises to ya
Glory hallelujah
You're the reason why I sing

Repetir

You're the reason why I sing
