  1. I need thee ev’ry hour,

    Most gracious Lord;

    No tender voice like thine

    Can peace afford.

    I need thee, O I need thee,

    Ev’ry hour I need thee,

    O bless me now, my Saviour,

    I come to thee.

  2. I need thee ev’ry hour,

    Stay thou near by;

    Temptations lose their pow’r

    When thou art nigh.

  3. I need thee ev’ry hour,

    In joy or pain;

    Come quickly, and abide,

    Or life is vain.

  4. I need thee ev’ry hour,

    Teach me thy will,

    And thy rich promises

    In me fulfil.

  5. I need thee ev’ry hour,

    Most Holy One;

    O make me thine indeed,

    Thou blessed Son.
