I Need Thee Every Hour
I Need Thee Every Hour
1. I need thee every hour,
Most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like thine
Can peace afford.
I need thee; O I need thee;
Every hour I need thee!
I bless me now, my Savior;
I come to thee!
2. I need thee every hour,
Stay thou nearby;
Temptations lose their power
When thou art nigh.
I need thee; O I need thee;
Every hour I need thee!
I bless me now, my Savior;
I come to thee!
3. I need thee every hour,
In joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide,
Or life is vain.
I need thee; O I need thee;
Every hour I need thee!
I bless me now, my Savior;
I come to thee!
4. I need thee every hour,
Most holy One;
O make me thine indeed,
Thou blessed Son!
I need thee; O I need thee;
Every hour I need thee!
I bless me now, my Savior;
I come to thee!
