In All The Way Through Earth I Take,
I Need Thee, Lord, I Need Thee,
To Teach Me How To Think And Speak,
I Need Thee, Lord, I Need Thee;
To Lead Me In The Path Of Right,
To Help Me Put The Foe To Flight,
And Always Keep My Armor Bright,
I Need Thee, Lord, I Need Thee.

When Tempted By Satanic Power,
I Need Thee, Lord, I Need Thee,
To Help Me Through The Trying Hour,
I Need Thee, Lord, I Need Thee;
I Need Thy Strength And Grace Divine,
No Love Can Comfort, Lord, Like Thine,
No Other Doth My Heart Entwine,
I Need Thee, Lord, I Need Thee.

When Thou Art Nigh, How Calm My Heart!
I Need Thee, Lord, I Need Thee,
For Thou Dost Sorrow Bid Depart,
I Need Thee, Lord, I Need Thee;
Oh, Stay With Me, My Lord, I Pray,
And Let Me Share Thy Love Each Day;
From Thy Dear Side I’ll Never Stray,
I Need Thee, Lord, I Need Thee.
