I need Thee, precious Saviour,
O Thou art all to me;
Before the throne for ever,
I stand complete in Thee.
Thou Satan loud accuses,
Yet I can ever see,
The blood of Christ most precious,
The sinner’s perfect plea.
I need Thee, precious Saviour,
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 Saviour,
I need a friend like Thee,
A friend to soothe and comfort,
A friend to care for me.
I need Thy heart, Lord Jesus!
To feel each anxious care,
To bear ev’ry burden,
And all my sorrow share.
I need Thee, precious Saviour,
For I am very blind,
A weak and foolish wand’rer,
With dark and evil mind,
I need Thy light, Lord Jesus!
To tread the thorny road,
To guide me safe to glory,
Where I shall see my God.
I need Thee, precious Saviour,
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 Saviour,
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 praise, Lord Jesus,
And ever gaze on Thee.
