English text
1 I need Thee every hour,
Most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like thine
Can peace afford.
2 I need Thee every hour;
Stay Thou near by;
Temptations lose their power
When Thou art nigh.
3 I need Thee every hour,
In joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide
Or life is vain.
4 I need Thee every hour;
Teach me Thy will;
And Thy rich promises
In me fulfil.
5 I need Thee every hour,
Most Holy One;
Oh, make me thine indeed,
Thou blessed Son.
