I Need Thee Every Hour
Don Moen · Thank You Lord [2004]
Most gracious Lord
No tender voice like thine
Can peace afford
I need thee, oh, I need thee
Every hour I need thee
O bless me now, my Saviour
I come to thee
I need thee every hour
In joy or pain
Come quickly and abide
Or life is in vain
I need thee, oh, I need thee
Every hour I need thee
O bless me now, my Saviour
I come to thee
