I need Thee every hour
"Hear, O Lord, and answer me, for I am poor and needy". Psalm 86:1
I need Thee every hour,
Most gracious Lord;
No tender voice but 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.
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.
I need Thee every hour;
Teach me thy will;
And thy rich promises
In me fulfil.
