I need Thee ev’ry hour,
Most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like Thine
Can peace afford.
Refrain:
I need Thee, oh, I need Thee;
Ev’ry hour I need Thee;
Oh, bless me now, my Savior,
I come to Thee.
I need Thee ev’ry hour,
Stay Thou nearby;
Temptations lose their pow’r
When Thou art nigh.
[Refrain]
I need Thee ev’ry hour,
In joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide,
Or life is vain.
[Refrain]
I need Thee ev’ry 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
Most blessed Son!
[Refrain]
