Every Hour

I have been enjoying singing at church.

For many years, that has not really been an option because I was behind the piano

Last week, hubby and I sang a duet.

It was mostly the familiar words of "Trust and Obey"

but with a different tune.

This week, my mind is enjoying the focus on "I Need Thee Every Hour."

A ladies group will be singing it in a couple weeks.

The words have been a blessing.

I need Thee every hour,

Most gracious Lord;

No tender voice like Thine

Can peace afford.

I need Thee, oh, I need Thee;

Every hour I need Thee;

Oh, bless me now, my Savior!

I come to Thee.

I need Thee every hour,

Stay Thou near by;

Temptations lose their power

When Thou art nigh.

I need Thee every hour,

In joy or pain;

Come quickly and abide,

Or life is vain.

I need Thee every hour,

Teach me Thy will;

And Thy rich promises

In me fulfill.

 I need Thee every hour,

Most Holy One;

Oh, make me Thine indeed,

Thou blessed Son.

Perhaps the song has meant so much,

because we potentially face some big decisions.

Possibly in the short-term weeks ahead,

but definitely in the final months of the year.

Without God, we dare not make a decision.
