Cómo podré estar triste

¿Cómo podré estar triste,
Cómo entre sombras ir,
Cómo sentirme solo
Y en el dolor vivir,
Si Cristo es mi consuelo,
Mi amigo siempre fiel,
Si aún las aves tienen
Seguro asilo en El?

CORO
Feliz, cantando alegre,
Yo vivo siempre aquí;
Si El cuida de las aves
Cuidará también de mi!

"Nunca te desalientes",
Oigo al Señor decir,
Y en su palabra fiado
Hago al dolor huir.
A Cristo paso a paso
Yo sigo sin cesar,
Y todas sus bondades
Me da sin limitar.

Siempre que soy tentado,
O qué en la sombra estoy,
Más cerca de El camino
Y protegido voy.
Si en mí la fe desmaya
Y caigo en la ansiedad
Tan sólo El me levanta,
Me da seguridad.

 
   
 

Catal'a

Com podré mai sentir-me sol

Com podré mai sentir-me sol, trist o atribolat?
Com en el dolor viure abatut i cansat?
Si Crist és qui em consola, amic sempre fidel,
si fins l'ocell hi troba refugi cert en Ell (bis)

TORNADA
Feliç, cantant alegre,
viuré per sempre aquí.
Si dels ocells te cura
també en tindrà de mi.

"No perdis l'esperança" em diu amb tendra veu,
i en la seva Paraula trobo refugi ferm.
Pas a pas jo vull seguir-lo, sempre a prop d'Ell confiat
i per la seva gràcia gaudir eterna bondat (bis)

Si en temptacions i proves em sento defallir,
més a prop d'Ell camino; la força em fa sentir.
Si la meva fe flaqueja, si el pecat em fa patir,
en les seves promeses tindré ajut sense fi. (bis)

 
   
 

Why should I feel discouraged

Why should I feel discouraged, why should the shadows come,
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.

Refrain
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.

"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.

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.
