I Need Jesus

I need Jesus more each day
For my heart would go astray.
That I might all sin abhor
I need Jesus more and more.

Chorus:
Jesus, teach me day by day.
Lead me in Thy Truth and Way.
Vict’ry was at Calv’ry won.
I need Jesus Christ the Son.

I need Jesus, ev’ry hour;
He my Overcoming Power.
With Him I can reach the goal.
I need Jesus in my soul.

I need Jesus through the mire
He alone fills each desire.
Quietly I hear Him call:
“I will be thine All in All.”

I need Jesus ev’ry mile
May I walk beneath His smile,
His approval, not of men.
I need Jesus, still, again.

I need Jesus He my King
Of His worthy name I sing.
And this song of prayer I raise
I need Jesus all my days.”
