The Mormon Tabernacle Choir performs the classic hymn 'I Need Thee Every Hour,' a song of deep dependence on God. The lyrics express a constant need for the Lord's presence, peace, and strength to overcome temptation. The singer acknowledges that only Christ can provide true peace and blessing, and repeatedly surrenders by saying 'I come to thee.' This hymn reflects a humble, prayerful attitude of reliance on God's grace and guidance in every moment of life.

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 loose their power
When thou art nigh

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
Most holy one 
Oh make me thine indeed
Thou blessed son

I need thee oh I need thee 
Every hour I need thee
Oh bless me now my savior 
I come to thee
