I need you every hour,
Most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like yours
Can peace afford.
Chorus:
I need you, oh, I need you!
Every hour I need you;
Oh, bless me now, my Savior!
I come to you.

I need you every hour,
Stay with me here;
Temptations lose their power
When you are near.

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

I need you every hour,
Teach me your will;
And your rich promises
In me fulfill.
