1 I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like Thine can peace afford.

Refrain:
I need Thee, oh, I need Thee;
Every hour I need Thee;
Oh, bless me now, my Savior,
I come to Thee.

2 I need Thee every hour, stay Thou nearby;
Temptations lose their pow’r when Thou art nigh. [Refrain]

3 I need Thee every hour, in joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide, or life is vain. [Refrain]

4 I need Thee every hour; teach me Thy will;
And Thy rich promises in me fulfill. [Refrain]

5 I need Thee every hour, most Holy One;
Oh, make me Thine indeed, Thou blessed Son. [Refrain]
