I need Thee every hour

If this is your heart's cry, please sing with me...

I Need Thee Every Hour

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 Savior,
I come to thee.

2. I need thee every hour; stay thou nearby; temptations lose their power when thou art nigh.
(Refrain)

3. I need thee every hour, in joy or pain;
come quickly and abide, or life is vain.
(Refrain)

4. I need thee every hour; teach me thy will; and thy rich promises in me fulfill.
(Refrain)

5. I need thee every hour, most Holy One;
O make me thine indeed, thou blessed Son.
(Refrain)

(Text: Annie S. Hawks, 1835-1918
Music: Robert Lowry, 1826-1899)

Sita,
That was just beautiful. Selah, right? I have that cd.
I haven't talked to you in a few days. Hope all is well with you and your family.
I lift up your requests often and pray you feel His presence & peace.
Love you!
Val
