I Need Thee Every Hour

1

I need Thee every hour,

  Most gracious Lord;

No tender voice like Thine

  Can peace afford.

2

I need Thee every hour,

  Stay Thou near by;

Temptations lose their power

  When Thou art nigh.

3

I need Thee every hour,

  In joy or pain;

Come quickly and abide,

  Or life is vain.

4

I need Thee every hour,

  Teach me Thy will;

And Thy rich promises

  In me fulfill.

5

I need Thee every hour,

  Most Holy One;

Oh, make me Thine indeed,

  Thou blessed Son.

CHORUS

  I need Thee, oh, I need Thee;

  Every hour I need Thee;

Oh, bless me now, my Savior!

    I come to Thee.

Lyrics:Annie Sherwood Hawks (1836-1918)
