i need thee every hour

I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord;

no tender voice like Thine can peace afford.




I need Thee, oh, I need Thee, every

hour I need Thee;

oh, bless me now, my Saviour!

I come to Thee!




I need Thee every hour, stay Thou near by;

temptations lose their power when Thou art nigh.




I need Thee every hour, in joy or pain;

come quickly and abide, or life is vain.




I need Thee every hour, teach me Thy will;

and Thy rich promises in me fulfil.




I need Thee every hour, most Holy One:

oh, keep me Thine indeed, Thou blessed Son!
