Jason Nelson's 'Every Hour (I Need Thee)' is a heartfelt gospel plea for God's presence and intervention in troubled times. The song acknowledges personal and global struggles, from darkness and heavy burdens to world crises and brokenness. Nelson expresses deep dependence on God, comparing the soul's longing to a deer panting for water, and asks the Potter to restore and mend what is broken. The repeated refrain 'I need Thee every hour' underscores a constant, urgent reliance on divine help. It's a prayerful, worshipful song that resonates with anyone seeking hope and peace amid life's challenges.

First giving honor to God
The one who's the head of my life
I'm standing in the need of prayer
It's dark I can't seem to find the light
The toll is heavy and high
The tides are rushing beyond relief
So I'm turning to You
Lord Please
I need thee woah oh
I need thee woah oh
I need thee woah oh
Every every every hour
We won't do
Please come through
We need you
Every every every hour
We won't do
Please come through
We need you
I saw the news today
Is it true that the world's on fire
Disease all in the air
My hands
Do they even matter
I know You see and hear all
This can't be how you want it all to be
So I'm running to You
Oh Father please
I need thee woah oh
Oh Lord I need thee woah oh
Every every every hour
We won't do
Please come through
We need you
Every every every hour
We won't do
Please come through
We need you
As the deer panteth for the water
Our soul longs after better days
So here I stand as the messenger
Can you hear me
Hearts all over the world
They're just breaking in my hands
Oh Potter please
Could you put us back together again
We need thee woah oh
We need thee woah oh
Oh Lord we need the woah oh
We need thee Lord we need thee
Woah oh
Every every every hour
We won't do
Please come through
We need you
Every every every hour
We won't do
Please come through
We need you
Every every every hour
We won't do
Please come through
We need you
Every every every hour
We won't do
Please come through
We need you
