I Need Thee Every Hour

  G                             C     G
I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord;
   D7                G         A7      D7
No tender voice like Thine can peace afford.

Chorus:
  G              D7
I need Thee, O I need Thee;
             G
Every hour I need Thee;
   C               G
O bless me now, my Saviour,
       D7 G
I come to Thee.

I need Thee every hour, stay Thou nearby;
Temptations lose their power when Thou art nigh.

Chorus

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

Chorus

I need Thee every hour; teach me Thy will;
And Thy rich promises in me fulfill.

Chorus

I need Thee every hour, most Holy One;
O make me Thine indeed, Thou blessèd Son.

Chorus
