[Chorus]

Lord, I need You, Oh, I need You

Every hour I need You

My one defense, my righteousness

Oh God, how I need You

[Verse 1]

Lord, I come, I confess

Bowing here, I find my rest

Without You, I fall apart

You're the One, that guides my heart

[Chorus]

Lord, I need You, Oh, I need You

Every hour I need You

My one defense, my righteousness

Oh God, how I need You

[Verse 2]

Where sin runs deep, Your grace is more

Where grace is found, is where You are

Oh, where You are, Lord, I am free

Holiness, is Christ in me

[Chorus]

Lord, I need You, Oh, I need You

Every hour I need You

My one defense, my righteousness

Oh God, how I need You

[Verse 3]

Teach my song to rise to You

When temptation comes my way

And when I cannot stand, I'll fall on You

Jesus, You're my hope and stay

Oh, Jesus, You're my hope and stay!

[Chorus]

Lord, I need You, Oh, I need You

Every hour I need You

My one defense, my righteousness

Oh God, how I need You

Lord, I need You, Oh, I need You

Every hour I need You

My one defense, my righteousness

Oh God, how I need You

[Outro]

My one defense, my righteousness

Oh God, how I need You

Oh God I need You, yeah...
