I need thee every hour, most gracious Lord;

no tender voice like thine can peace afford.

I am really enjoying the Devotional that Karen got me for Christmas.  Each day looks at a great hymn or song of faith.  Even though I have song this one many times throughout my life, as I meditated upon the words the other day, wow, they really blessed me.

I need thee every hour, stay thou nearby;

temptations lose their power when thou art nigh.

Last night, at the end of Men’s Cup of Jesus, we spent time praying for each other, and the things each of us are dealing with in our lives.  Desires to be better husbands and dads, anxieties about work, temptations to sin…we prayed deeply for God’s presense to be evident in our lives, and that He would be miraculus in those prayers.

I need thee every hour, teach me thy will;

and thy rich promises in me fulfill.

It was a cool night of Brother’s caring about Brother’s, while drawing closer to our Savior and Lord.

I need thee,, O I need thee; every hour I need thee;

O bless me now, my Savior,, I come to thee.

Blessed!
