Hymn 556
I need Thee, precious Saviour
- I need Thee, precious Saviour,
Oh, Thou art all to me;
Before the throne for ever,
I stand complete in Thee.
Though satan loud accuses,
Yet I can ever see.
The blood of Christ most precious,
The sinners's perfect plea.
- 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 my every burden.
And all my sorrow share.
- I need Thee, precious Saviour,
I need Thee day by day,
To fill me with Thy fulness,
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 people,
My joy shall ever be.
To sing Thy praise. Lord Jesus,
And ever gaze on Thee.
