 i need Thee

O God, my Maker, give me to know, evermore, at least this one thing, that [b]i need Thee[/b].

God i need Thee.

Is there ever a time,
when i do not need Thee?

When i am proud, God

[b]i need Thee[/b]

When i am humble

[b]i need Thee[/b]

When i'm misunderstood

[b]i need Thee[/b]

and when i think i understand

[b]i need Thee[/b]

When i'm alone

[b]i need Thee[/b]

and when i'm surrounded by friends

[b]i need Thee[/b]

When i sin

[b]i need Thee[/b]

and when i don't

[b]i need Thee[/b]

God, when i'm lost

[b]i need Thee[/b]

and whenever You find me

[b]i need Thee[/b]

[b]i need Thee[/b] O God!

If i'm right [b]i need Thee[/b]

If i'm wrong [b]i need Thee[/b]

If i'm tired [b]i need Thee[/b]

and if I'm strong?

[b]i still need Thee[/b]!

God, when, o when, could i ever say

i do not need Thee?

Is my heart full of sorrow?

then i need Thee

Do i have joy?

i need Thee

Am i surrounded by fears?

by uncertainties?

by a million differnt things that could go wrong?

God, i need Thee!

Right now, i need Thee

Tomorrow, i will need Thee

and yesturday, i needed Thee.

i will forever need Thee.

You created me, to need Thee,

for You alone, are God.

[b]i need Thee, my God[/b].

[b]i need Thee,

my God[/b].

 Re: i need Thee

Chris, This is my life hymn, you reminded me to sing it again! Thank you, KDB

Annie Hawks wrote:

One day as a young wife and mother of 37 years of age, I was bu­sy with my reg­u­lar house­hold tasks. Sud­den­ly, I be­came so filled with the sense of near­ness to the Mast­er that, won­der­ing how one could live with­out Him, ei­ther in joy or pain, these words, “I Need Thee Ev­e­ry Hour,” were ush­ered in­to my mind, the thought at once tak­ing full pos­sess­ion of me.

After writ­ing the lyr­ics, Hawks gave them to her pas­tor, Ro­bert Low­ry, who add­ed the tune and re­frain. The hymn was first pub­lished at the Na­tion­al Bap­tist Sun­day School Con­ven­tion in Cin­cin­na­ti, Ohio, in 1872. Some years lat­er, af­ter the death of her hus­band, Hawks wrote:

I did not un­der­stand at first why this hymn had touched the great throb­bing heart of hu­man­i­ty. It was not un­til long af­ter, when the sha­dow fell over my way, the sha­dow of a great loss, that I un­der­stood some­thing of the com­fort­ing pow­er in the words which I had been per­mit­ted to give out to others in my hour of sweet se­ren­i­ty and peace.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.

I need Thee every hour, stay Thou nearby;
Temptations lose their power when Thou art nigh.

Refrain

I need Thee every hour, in joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide, or life is in vain.

Refrain

I need Thee every hour; teach me Thy will;
And Thy rich promises in me fulfill.

Refrain

I need Thee every hour, most Holy One;
O make me Thine indeed, Thou blessèd Son.

 Re: i need Thee

I need Thee, precious Jesus,
For I am full of sin;
My soul is dark and guilty,
My heart is dead within.
I need the cleansing fountain
Where I can always flee,
The blood of Christ most precious,
The sinner’s perfect plea.

I need Thee, precious Jesus,
For I am very poor;
A stranger and a pilgrim,
I have no earthly store.
I need the love of Jesus
To cheer me on my way,
To guide my doubting footsteps,
To be my strength and stay.

I need Thee, precious Jesus,
I need a friend like Thee,
A friend to soothe and pity,
A friend to care for me.
I need the heart of Jesus
To feel each anxious care,
To tell my every trouble,
And all my sorrows share.

I need Thee, precious Jesus,
I need Thee, day by day,
To fill me with Thy fullness,
To lead me on my way;
I need Thy Holy Spirit,
To teach me what I am,
To show me more of Jesus,
To point me to the Lamb.

I need Thee, precious Jesus,
And hope to see Thee soon,
Encircled with the rainbow
And seated on Thy throne.
There, with Thy blood bought children,
My joy shall ever be,
To sing Thy praises, Jesu,
To gaze, O Lord, on Thee.

 Re:

I need Him more and more each day.
He is the Potter, we are the clay.
May He mold us in His own Gentle Way.
Praise God, for Jesus, Our Lamb.

 Re:

I need Thee even though You don't need me.
You loved me when I hated You.
My heart aches for You. Your presence is Life and joy and peace.

Keep me close Lord, never let me fall.
The world discusts me. Sin discusts me.
I yearn for my glorified body.
I yearn to be in your presence forever.
I want to hear your voice.
I want to see your face.
I want to touch your hands and head and feet.
I want to just sit and listen to you speak.
I want to look at you and thank you.
I want to embrace you.
I want to shake your hand.
I want to go on walks with you.

Even so come Lord. Quickly!

 Re:

I wish I could say this...

[b]Himself
by A.B.Simpson (1904)[/b]

Once it was the blessing,
Now it is the Lord;
Once it was the feeling,
Now it is His Word;
Once His gift I wanted,
Now, the Giver own;
Once I sought for healing,
Now Himself alone.

Refrain

All in all forever,
Jesus will I sing;
Everything in Jesus,
And Jesus everything.

Once ’twas painful trying,
Now ’tis perfect trust;
Once a half salvation,
Now the uttermost;
Once ’twas ceaseless holding,
Now He holds me fast;
Once ’twas constant drifting,
Now my anchor’s cast.

Refrain

Once ’twas busy planning,
Now ’tis trustful prayer;
Once ’twas anxious caring,
Now He has the care;
Once ’twas what I wanted,
Now what Jesus says;
Once ’twas constant asking,
Now ’tis ceaseless praise.

Refrain

Once it was my working,
His it hence shall be;
Once I tried to use Him,
Now He uses me;
Once the pow’r I wanted,
Now the Mighty One;
Once for self I labored,
Now for Him alone.

Refrain

Once I hoped in Jesus,
Now I know He’s mine;
Once my lamps were dying,
Now they brightly shine;
Once for death I waited,
Now His coming hail;
And my hopes are anchored
Safe within the veil.

Refrain

Dear brother Kire,

Now, the Giver own

 Re:

"Lord, [b]help me[/b] to glorify Thee;

I am poor, [b]help me[/b] to glorify Thee by contentment;

I am sick, [b]help me[/b] to give Thee honor by patience;

I have talents, help me to extol Thee by spending them for Thee;

I have time, Lord, help me to redeem it, that I may serve thee;

I have a heart to feel, Lord, let that heart feel no love but Thine, and glow with no flame but affection for Thee;

I have a head to think, Lord, help me to think of Thee and for Thee; Thou hast put me in this world for something, Lord, [b]show me what that is,[/b] and help me to work out my life-purpose: [b]I cannot do much,[/b] but as the widow put in her two mites, which were all her living, so, Lord, I cast my time and eternity too into Thy treasury;

I am all Thine; [b]take me,[/b] and enable me to glorify Thee now, in all that I say, in all that I do, and with all that I have."
