I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR

I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR

I need Thee every hour,
Most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like Thine
Can peace afford.

Refrain

I need Thee, O I need Thee;
Every hour I need Thee;
O bless me now, my Savior,
I come to Thee.

I need Thee every hour,
Stay Thou nearby;
Temptations lose their power
When Thou art nigh.

Refrain

I need Thee every hour,
In joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide,
Or life is in vain.

Refrain

I need Thee every hour;
Teach me Thy will;
And Thy rich promises
In me fulfill.

Refrain

I need Thee every hour,
Most Holy One;
O make me Thine indeed,
Thou blessèd Son.
