The Christian Refuge

Annie S. Hawks, 1872Robert Lowry, 1872

1

I need Thee every hour, Most gracious Lord;No tender voice like Thine Can peace afford.

Refrain

I need Thee, O I need Thee! Every hour I need Thee;O bless me now, my Saviour! I come to Thee.

2

I need Thee every hour; Stay Thou near by;Temptations lose their power When Thou art nigh.

Refrain

I need Thee, O I need Thee! Every hour I need Thee;O bless me now, my Saviour! I come to Thee.

3

I need Thee every hour; In joy or pain;Come quickly and abide, Or life is vain.

Refrain

I need Thee, O I need Thee! Every hour I need Thee;O bless me now, my Saviour! I come to Thee.

4

I need Thee every hour; Teach me Thy will,And Thy rich promises In me fulfill.

Refrain

I need Thee, O I need Thee! Every hour I need Thee;O bless me now, my Saviour! I come to Thee.
