I NEED THEE EVERY HOUR, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: I need thee every hour
Last Line: "I need, oh, I need thee."
Subject(s): Religion; Sin; Theology


"I need Thee every hour,
Most gracious Lord,"
With majesty and power
With one accord.

Sang the village choir at church
Truthful words of prayer,
Could we but know how much
We need Thee here.

How much we need Thy guidance
When roads are drear,
How much we need Thy aidance
When sin is near.

Believing on Thy precious word
And mercy free,
May I thus ever pray, "Dear Lord,
I need, oh, I need Thee."
