1 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!

2 I need Thee ev'ry hour;
Stay Thou near by;
Temptations lose their power
When Thou art nigh. [Refrain]

3 I need Thee ev'ry hour;
Teach me Thy will;
And Thy rich promises
In me fulfil. [Refrain]

4 I need Thee ev'ry hour,
Most Holy One;
O make me Thine indeed,
Thou blessed Son. [Refrain]
