i've no need of wealth or fame
There is nothing I could gain
that could pay the debt and wash away my sins
I have only this one hope
There's no other friend I know
that could set me free and give me life again
CHORUS
I need thee; oh, I need thee
every hour I need thee
Oh bless me now my savior
I come to thee
VERSE
I'll not cling to words of man
There's no peace in my own plans
I will lay my life in hands that will endure
And though time shall pass away
Earth and sky no more remain
I know your word stands unchanged
your promise sure
CHORUS
I need thee; oh, I need thee
every hour I need thee
Oh bless me now my savior
I come to thee
BRIDGE
Oh, make me thine; make me thine indeed
Oh, be my all; be my everything
Oh, here's my heart; it is yours my King
I come (Repeat)
CHORUS
I need thee; oh, I need thee
every hour I need thee
Oh bless me now my savior
I come to thee.
