I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR

 

#97, Hymns

Lead thou me on

The night is dark

And I am far from home

Lead thou me on

Guide thou my feet

Keep me from former snares

I bow my will

Remember not past years

#98, Hymns

I need thee every hour

Most gracious Lord

No tender voice like thine

Can peace afford

 

I need thee every hour

Stay thou nearby

Temptations lose their power

When thou art nigh

I need thee, oh, I need thee

Every hour I need thee

Oh, bless me now, my Savior

I come to thee

 

I need thee every hour

In joy or pain

Come quickly and abide

Or life is vain

 

I need thee every hour

Most holy One

Oh, make me thine indeed

Thou blessed Son

I need thee, oh, I need thee

Every hour I need thee

Oh, bless me now, my Savior

I come to thee

I come to thee
