I need thee ev - ery hour, Most gra - cious Lord. No ten - der voice like thine Can peace af - ford. I need thee, oh, I need thee; Ev - ery hour I need thee! Oh, bless me now, my Sav - ior; I come to thee! verse I need thee every hour; Stay thou nearby. Temptations lose their pow‘r When thou art nigh I need thee, oh, I need thee; Ev - ery hour I need thee! Oh, bless me now, my Sav - ior; I come to thee! verse I need thee every hour, In joy or pain. Come quickly and abide, Or life is vain. I need thee, oh, I need thee; Ev - ery hour I need thee! Oh, bless me now, my Sav - ior; I come to thee!
