I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like Thine can peace afford.
Chorus:
I need Thee, O I need Thee; every hour I need Thee!
O bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee!
I need Thee every hour, stay Thou near by;
Temptations lose their power when Thou art nigh.
I need Thee every hour, in joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide, or life is vain.
