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

Refrain:
I need Thee, O, I need Thee;
Every hour I need Thee!
O bless me now, my Savior–
I come to Thee. Amen.

2 I need Thee every hour,
Stay Thou near by;
Temptations lose their power
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]
