I Need Thee Every Hour

1I need thee every hour, Most gracious Lord; No tender voice like thine Can peace afford. I need thee every hour, Most Holy One; O make me thine indeed, Thou blessed Son!

RefrainI need thee, O I need thee, Ev-'ry hour I need thee! O bless me now, my Sav-iour, I come to thee!

2I need thee every hour, Stay thou near by; Temptation loses pow'r When thou art nigh. I need thee every hour, In joy or pain; Come quickly and abide, Or life is vain.

3I need thee every hour, In hope or fear; Come quickly and abide, Or life is vain. I need thee every hour, Most Holy One; O make me thine indeed, Thou blessed Son!
