The Hymnal ‎#501

501. I need Thee every hour

1. I need Thee every hour,
Most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like Thine
Can peace afford.
I need Thee, O I need thee,
Every hour I need Thee;
O bless me now, my Saviour,--
I come to Thee.

2. I need Thee every hour;
Stay Thou nearby;
Temptations lose their power
When Thou art nigh.
I need Thee, O I need thee,
Every hour I need Thee;
O bless me now, my Saviour,--
I come to Thee.

3. I need Thee every hour,
In joy or pain;
Come quickly, and abide,
Or life is vain.
I need Thee, O I need thee,
Every hour I need Thee;
O bless me now, my Saviour,--
I come to Thee.

4. I need Thee every hour;
Teach me Thy will,
And Thy rich promises
In me fulfil.
I need Thee, O I need thee,
Every hour I need Thee;
O bless me now, my Saviour,--
I come to Thee.

5. I need Thee every hour,
Most Holy One;
O make me Thine indeed,
Thou blessed Son.
I need Thee, O I need thee,
Every hour I need Thee;
O bless me now, my Saviour,--
I come to Thee.

Amen.
