	I need thee, O I need thee;

	(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.
