I Need thee Every Hour

I have noticed that each day gets harder and harder.  I keep thinking that I only have Colton left for a couple more months.  It gets me thinking of not being with him for two years.  I think the thing that will be most hard is not being able to talk to him whenever I want, or about all my problems, but worse of all... he won't be able to hold me when I cry or am down.  That is when I will need Heavenly Father most.  Today while I was getting ready for school, I started singing "I Need thee Every Hour"  It comforted me and it helped me realize that Heavenly Father will not leave Colton and I alone.  He will always be with us no matter where we are or what our circumstances are. Heavenly Father, I need thee every hour.


"I Need Thee Every Hour"

1. I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord;
   No tender voice like Thine can peace afford.
   • Refrain:
     I need Thee, oh, I need Thee;
     Every hour I need Thee;
     Oh, bless me now, my Savior,
     I come to Thee.
2. I need Thee every hour, stay Thou nearby;
   Temptations lose their pow’r 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 fulfill.
5. I need Thee every hour, most Holy One;
   Oh, make me Thine indeed, Thou blessed Son.
