I was lucky enough to sing in the chorus for her Underground Railroad recital in southern California. 2016 and her voice was as pure and awe inspiring up close as it is here. I will cherish that memory forever.
ANGEL OF PERFECTION, in Person she is breathtaking. SAw her in Munich, Germany and it was the best concert I had ever seen in my life. And another dress that was stunning and she works her dresses perfectly on the stage as well. What a gifted performer.
A universal testimony with unlimited timing and without boundaries available in any and all circumstances to each person respectively . Thank You Jesus
While I am grateful appreciate of this beautiful glorious heavenly voice that is so gifted by God and the beauty of this anointing is heard all over the world; at this very moment I am recalling because of where I am now this song reminds me of God’s love 💕 so thank you Sister Kathleen for allowing God’s Holy Spirit to use you to encourage me and others who need to hear a heavenly voice ❤
What a timely message from God through His Angelic Angel so wonderful to have been chosen to encourage us Thank You Father and continue to bless beautiful Kathleen Battle
How befitting to hear this breath of fresh air on such a challenging day when you are wanting to be there to help; but turning and hearing God’s unending love 💕; thank heaven for your awesome gift
Always appropriate because of this world and all the tragedies we see or contend with on an individual or personal level we brought back into comfortable intimacy and that is trusting in our sovereign God and in His Son our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus. We are never too small in His Eyes,
the difference with other sopranos is that kathleen has a beautiful color or tone of voice there are many good sopranos but with that color do you know of any similar?
His eye is on the sparrow Why should I feel discouraged And why should the shadows come And why should my heart feel so lonely And long for heaven and home When Jesus is my portion My constant friend is He His eyes is on the sparrow And I know he watches me I sing because I'm happy I sing because I'm free His eye is on the sparrow And I know he watches And I know he watches I know he watches me I sing because I'm happy I sing because I'm free His eye is on the sparrow And I know he watches me CHORUS: I sing because I'm happy I sing because I'm free His eye is on the sparrow And I know he watches me CHORUS I know he watches me [¿?] I know he watches me
discouraged, why should the shadows come, Why should my heart be lonely, and long for heav’n 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.
I wondered what happened to her. Time to forgive & move on. Her talent speaks for itself. Forever is a long time & I'm sure she won't make those mistakes again. Time is so short & let's not punish her further.
Looks like there is a new generation discovering her beautiful voice which has no idea of her past troubles, rudeness towards other singers, and “diva” attitude which caused her to get fired from the Met Opera. It’s for the best. What really matters is the extraordinary beauty of her voice.
Um...Lauren and Tonya Blount did do an amazing job with their rendition of this song, but pairing Hill with Battle would be a disservice to Miss Kathleen. I think.
This is arranged by Robert Sadin, and he is currently represented by BeLikeWater Productions. You can visit their page and there is contact information listed.
I'm sure you're the minority in that thinking. The performance is perfection, not just because it's sung and played beautifully, but because there's so much joy and praise flowing from it. If you ever want to honor God, you do so by utilizing the gifts he has bestowed upon you to the best of your ability. That is what is on display here.
God has blessed her with a magnificent voice and us with the ability to appreciate it. Praise God.
Amen ijn 🙏

Don’t you Just get lost in this love song that God sends to us through this angelic voice

the difference with other sopranos is that kathleen has a beautiful color or tone of voice there are many good sopranos but with that color do you know of any similar?
Thank you 🙏 Jesus
Never forget how much God 💕 love’s
His eye is on the sparrow
Why should I feel discouraged
And why should the shadows come
And why should my heart feel so lonely
And long for heaven and home
When Jesus is my portion
My constant friend is He
His eyes is on the sparrow
And I know he watches me
I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he watches
And I know he watches
I know he watches me
I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he watches me
CHORUS:
I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know he watches me
CHORUS
I know he watches me [¿?]
I know he watches me
Angelic
Sss
Phenomenal and magnificent talent! Ms. Battle is incredible! Pianist is outstanding as well! Just beautiful!
Thank you so much
Beautiful beyond human words, she sings on angels level!!!!!! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Adore her. Just would love to hear her in person and meet her.
Stunning!
A very rare talent indeed for an opera soprano.
flawless and so meaningful
I know it's not about the dress, but I really like that dress.
Praise God..So Beautiful
Astoundingly Beautiful
Can't stop saying 'brava!' to this woman.
the most beautiful voice in the world!! just what i imagine god's angels would sound like!
No words. ..wow!
At 4:30 she doesn't even sound human. Glory to God this woman sounds like an instrument !!!
Aqua Lilly 🌈

Phenomenal!
I just Love Hearing This Woman 😍💕💕
Miss Kathleen
discouraged, why should the shadows come,
Why should my heart be lonely, and long for heav’n 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.
Amazing.
Exquisite!
stuning.
Amen!!!

A performance together with Lauren Hill would be magic!
Who needs Lauren Hill?!
Ahh, I see.
Um...Lauren and Tonya Blount did do an amazing job with their rendition of this song, but pairing Hill with Battle would be a disservice to Miss Kathleen. I think.
That woman just can't be real
I think she has to be an angel disguised as a human woman. She is amazing!
Miss Battle is my very favorite aside from Fritz Wunderlich, whom NOBODY can equal! but Miss Battle comes mighty close! mighty close!
3:25
Outstanding !
Does someone know where I can find this arrangement with piano ??!!! Or other Spirituals she sang ? Thank you !!!
Did you even find an arrangement for this? My daughter would like to sing this version for her sr recital. Thanks for any leads.
I also need a copy .pls send to seyiajibade@ymail.com

lucky japan
Beautiful except last note is flat. If one cannot hit it better to pass on it
just shut up and enjoy
bullshit on your comment. not flat.
This performance lacks the element of feeling. I hear a well performed art song but what was intended by its composer is not present.
I'm sure you're the minority in that thinking. The performance is perfection, not just because it's sung and played beautifully, but because there's so much joy and praise flowing from it. If you ever want to honor God, you do so by utilizing the gifts he has bestowed upon you to the best of your ability. That is what is on display here.
Goodness I couldn't disagree more. Kathleen Battle's rendition is absolutely FULL of emotion. It's just exquisite in every way.
Oh Rev... you might be the one who lacks feeling.
