Good morning. Let's all stand
together. We'll sing hymn number 268. 268. How firm a foundation, ye Saints
of the Lord, Is laid for your faith in His excellent Word. What more can ye ? To you he hath said ? To you
who for refuge ? To Jesus hath fled ? Fear not, I am with thee,
O Jesus not dismayed. For I am thy God, I will still
give thee aid. I'll strengthen thee, help thee,
and cause thee to stand. by my gracious omnipotent hand. Weep through the deep waters,
I call thee to go. The rivers have flown. ? Shall not be overflown ? ?
For I will be with thee ? ? Thy troubles to bless ? ? And sanctify
to thee ? ? Thy deepest distress ? When through fiery trials Thy
pathway shall lie, My grace, all-sufficient, shall be Thy
supply. The flame shall not burn Thee
I only design Thy trust to consume And Thy gold to refine I will not, I will not desert to his
foes. Be seated. We'll sing hymn number 112. 112. 355, number 355. From every stormy
wind that blows, Swelling tide of woes, there
is a call. A sure retreat is found beneath
the perches. There is a place where Jesus
sheds the oil of gladness on our heads. A place that all besides
for sweet, It is a blood-bought mercy seat. There is a scene where spirits
blend Where friend holds fellowship With friend though sundered far
By faith they meet, Around one common verse he'll sing. Ah, whither could we flee for
aid? In tilted desolate dismay, O'er
hallowed halls the bells did ring, And suffering saints no
mercy seen. of their uneagle wings, we soar
and sing. Let's read from Psalm 34 together
this morning. Psalm 34. I will bless the Lord at all
times. His praise shall continually
be in my mouth. My soul shall make her boast
in the Lord. The humble shall hear and be
glad. Oh, magnify the Lord with me.
Let us exalt his name together. I sought the Lord and he heard
me and delivered me from all my fears. They looked unto him
and were lightened, and their faces were not ashamed. This
poor man cried, and the Lord heard, saved him from out of
all his troubles. The angel of the Lord encampeth
round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. Oh, taste
and see that the Lord is good. Blessed is the man that trusteth
in him. Oh, fear the Lord, ye his saints,
for there is no want to them that fear him. The young lions
do lack and suffer hunger, but they that seek the Lord shall
not want any good thing. Come, you children, hearken unto
me. I will teach you the fear of
the Lord. What man is he that desireth
life and loveth many days that he may see good? Keep thy tongue
from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. Depart from evil,
and do good. Seek peace, and pursue it. The
eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears unto
their cry. The face of the Lord is against
them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from
the earth. The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth and delivereth
him out of all their troubles. The Lord is nigh unto them that
are of a broken heart, and save as such as be of a contrite spirit. Many are the afflictions of the
righteous, but the Lord delivereth him out of them all. He keepeth
all his bones, and not one of them is broken. Evil shall slay
the wicked, and they that hate righteousness shall be desolate.
The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants, and none of them
that trust in him shall be desolate. our great, glorious, and blessed
God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, our God, our Father,
our Lord, our Master, our Redeemer, our Savior. Though you know that
we go through many afflictions in this life, Lord, you save
us out of all of them. And I thank you, Lord, that you
gave us this day Every day is the Lord's day. Every day is
a day that you cause your blessed face to shine upon us. And Lord,
you save us so many times in this life. And Lord, we desire
to be saved. We want to be saved. We want
to be saved from ourselves, from everything that's against you.
from ever thought, ever evil desire, ever evil imagination. Lord, save us from these things.
And Lord, we thank you that you gave us this opportunity to gather
here this morning. And Lord, we pray that the gospel
would run well here today, the saints would be blessed, beatified,
established in the faith, And Lord, the sinners would be
saved, be brought to the feet of the Lord Jesus Christ. Lord,
so many people were found at your feet in your word. Mary
was found at your feet. Multitudes came and dowed at
your feet. The woman with the issue of blood
went to your feet. So Lord, we pray that you'd bring
folks to the feet of the Lord Jesus Christ. Bring him there
in submission. Bring him there where they cry,
Lord, if you will, you can make me whole. If you will, you can
clean me. And Lord, we pray for the sick
among us, the tried among us, the burdened among us. Lord,
that you'd please give them grace and mercy. Bill and Fran, Rick
and Helen, and others among us whose bodies are very weak, who's
fighting a great fight of afflictions. Lord, please be with us. Please
bring glory to yourself. Forgive me, oh Lord, of everything
that's unlike you. Give me strength and grace for
today. We ask these things in our blessed Savior's name. Amen. Amen. Hymn number 186. I'm sorry that's the that's the
bulletin stand and sing the bulletin of the day O Lamb of God, still keep me
near to Thy wounded side. Tis only there in safety and
peace I can abide. What foes and snares surround
me, What lust and fears within The grace that sought and found
me Alone can keep me clean ? Tis only in thee abiding ? I know
my life secure ? Only in thee abiding ? Thy steadfast shall
endure ? Thine arm may victory gaineth for every hurtful foe. I love my heart, sustain it in
all its care and woe. ? Soon shall my eyes behold thee
? ? With rapture face to face ? ? The path hath not been told
me ? ? Of all thy power and grace ? ? Thy beauty, Lord, and glory
? Be seated. Now turn to Mark chapter 4. Turn
to Mark chapter 4. Start reading in verse 34 to
the end of the chapter. This is where I'm going to, God
willing, preach from this morning. But without a parable spake he
not unto them, and when they were alone, he expounded all
things to his disciples. His disciples alone, he didn't
to the crowd, to all the people. But he expounded unto them, just
his people. He says, you know it's given
unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to
them it's hid. And the same day, the same day,
When the evening was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass
over unto the other side. And when they had sent away the
multitude, they took him, even as he was in the ship, and there
were also with him other little ships. And there arose a great
storm of wind, and as the waves beat into the ship, so that it
was now full. And when he was in the hinder
part of the ship, asleep on a pillow, a pillow, and they awake him,
and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish? And
he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace
be still. And the wind ceased, and there
was a great calm. And he said unto them, Why are
ye so fearful? How is it that ye have no faith? And they feared exceedingly,
and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even
the wind and the sea obey him?" This is a familiar verse, and
you all have read it probably many times. But there are three
questions in these verses that are pretty profound to me, pretty
profound. The first one was, In verse 39,
when they say, Master, cares thou not that we perish? Would
anybody here say that to the Master this morning? Master,
cares thou not that we perish? Been some pretty tough storms
that people's went through in life. Seen some pretty rough
struggles that people's went through in life. But Master,
cares thou not that we perish? What a question. to ask the Lord
Jesus Christ. What a question to ask Him. And
then look at two questions He asked them down in verse 40.
Why are you so fearful? Why in the world are you so afraid? Why? Why in the world are you
so fearful? And the third question is this,
how is it that you have no faith? You're afraid and you don't have
any faith? Those are three pretty profound
questions, ain't they? They asked the Lord one and He
asked them two. Why are you so fearful? And how is it that you have no
faith? How is it? How is it that you
brought to this place that you have no faith? And I tell you,
Christ is in the ship. As long as he's in the ship,
may not always be smooth sailing. May go through a lot of storms.
We just got through singing that song, How Firm a Foundation,
You Saints of the Lord. There's no other foundation than
Christ and His Word, and although the Lord Jesus Christ is in the
ship and in the boat, sailing may not be good, sailing may
not be safe, may be a lot of storms, but I'll tell you one
thing, that as long as He's in the ship, everybody in it's safe. There ain't no danger of that
ship sinking. I don't care how bad the storm gets. I don't care
how hard the wind blows. I don't care how high the waves
get. But our Lord Jesus Christ, as
long as He's in the ship, everybody in it's safe. There ain't no
danger of them not getting to the other side. There ain't no
danger of that ship sinking. There ain't no danger of them
being lost. There's no danger of it at all.
And I tell you, we see how great a salvation our Lord Jesus Christ
works for His people, for His people. And oh my, And look what
it says here now in verse 37. It looked like these folks were
gonna drown, looked like they're scared to death. And there rose
a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so
that it was now full. I mean, water was getting in
the boat, waves were getting into the ship. It said it was
full. Waves getting over that coming
over it and the wind blowing a great storm and that boat was
getting full of water And you know when water gets into one
after enough water gets into it. It's gonna sink. It's gonna
sink About boat was waterlogged. It was sinking and I'll tell
you there's two reasons two reasons Here they was, they d been with
the Lord Jesus Christ, and they d made all these parables, and
He expounded the parables only unto them. It already gave them
blessed privileges. He d done things for them that
He didn t do for nobody else. And He said, We re going to go
to the other side. So our Lord went to sleep. He went to sleep.
And first thing is that we have storms without Circumstances
change, but God never changes. Circumstances always change. The things that are around us
change. And it seems like everything sometimes be against you. But
I tell you the way, oh, listen. You know, it's like those storms.
There's two houses. Our Lord told about two houses
being built. He said one was built on a rock.
The other was built on the sand. And He says when the storm came,
and the winds beat on those houses, and the rains descended, and
there s going to be rains of trials and winds of storms and
winds of adversity, things that s going to seem to be blowing
us all over the place. But he says the storms beat on
that house, but the house that was built on that rock, it stood,
but the house that was built on that sand, that house fell. And I tell you one thing, if
Christ is not in there with you, you got no hope. When your ship
goes down, when that storm comes for you, you're gonna go down
with it. That storm will destroy you. That storm will overthrow
you. That storm will defeat you. That storm will drown you. I'm
telling you, there's so many things that comes in people's
lives. Oh my. Our members of our family, they're
lost. That's a trial. That's a trial. That's a storm. To be without
God, to be without Christ, to be without hope in this world.
And that storm's gonna come, I mean they're gonna come, huh? Oh, they are, our children's
lost. You got children in here that's
lost. You got family members that's lost. And I don't wanna see anybody
die lost. I don't wanna see anybody that
ship get waterlogged and then go down. I don't wanna see anybody
do that. And the only way in the world
to not do that is to trust come to the Lord Jesus Christ. I'll
tell you a disease, a disease may come one of these days. There's
a disease may come to you one of these days. There may be a
cancer in your body right now that's gonna kill you in the
next year or two. There may be the car being built
right now that you may buy that you're going to wreck and die
in. That's reality. That's what we're looking at.
That's what we're talking about. Oh, my. Disease may come and
get you. You know, when that Viper got
on Paul's hand we was talking about Wednesday night, there
may be one of these old Vipers laying out there ready to bite
you. But you can't shake it off. You can't shake it off. And I
tell you, death, death may be one of them awful, awful things
that come, visits the home. And it does, it's going to. It's
visiting homes right now, people that we love. People that we
love. Oh my. And then you know when
these things come, these trials come, these winds come, and our
Lord Jesus Christ seems to be asleep. Is he listening? Is he listening? Oh, no. No help seems to come
now. It seems like he's hit his face.
And then not only do we have these storms without, but what
about in here? What about the troubles that
goes on in here? What about these fightings that
go in within our own souls, within our own breast, within our own
mind? Huh? Oh my. You know the man that
troubles me more than anybody else? It's me. Me. Huh? Oh my. I would that one of these days
I'd be done with this sin. I'd be done with this flesh.
I'd be done with this weakness. I'd be done with these infirmities.
Be done with these inabilities. Be done with this weakness and
all the things that's so troubling. And that's the worst storms we
go through go inside. The worst storms we have in our
life happens within us. Wouldn't you agree to that? I
think the worst storms we go through, I mean, you know, we
have troubles without. We do, we have troubles in our
homes, we have trouble with our families, we have troubles with
disease, we have troubles with sickness, we have troubles with
heartaches, we have trouble with tears, we have trouble with family
members, we have troubles! But all the greatest trouble
we go through in our lives is what goes on within ourselves. I trust all of my sin and iniquity
and trespasses and all the awful things that goes on within us,
and I tell you what, there's no way in the world that a human
being can keep the ship from sinking. THESE MEN COULDN'T DO
ANYTHING ABOUT THIS BOAT! THEY WERE FISHERMEN! THEY'D BEEN
IN BOATS ALL THEIR LIVES! THEY COULDN'T SAVE THIS BOAT!
THEY DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH BUCKETS TO BAIL OUT THE WATER! THEY DIDN'T
HAVE ENOUGH EFFORT! THEY'D BEEN DOING EVERYTHING
THEY POSSIBLY COULD TO SAVE THAT SHIP! BUT I TELL YOU, HUMAN EFFORT
WON'T DO IT! OH MY! YOU KNOW WHAT, THESE FELLAS
QUIT STRUGGLING TRYING TO SAVE THE BOAT, AND YOU KNOW WHERE
THEY WENT? THEY WENT TO THE LORD! Huh? And I tell you, this is
the most astounding thing to me. Christ was asleep. Now we
know that God Almighty does not sleep, but man sleeps. And the Lord Jesus Christ as
a man was subject to being tired, being wearied. It says when he
went to see the woman at the well, and the scripture says
being wearied with his journey, he set out. being wearied with his journey,
he sat down. He tried to get away from the
crowds and go up on a mountaintop so he could get some rest and
his disciples could get some rest. But God don't need rest. A man needs rest. And oh, what
a question, what a question, what a question. Look what he
says there in verse, oh my, in verse 38. And he was in the back
part of the ship, back part of the ship. Asleep, he had him
a pillow. Had him a pillow. And he was
asleep. Oh my. And they had to run back
there and they awake him. They wake him up. That's an amazing thing. Christ
being woke up. When God don't sleep. But they
woke him up. Wake up, wake up, Lord, wake
up! Oh, and say unto him, and he's
not even got up yet, he's still laying there. Wake up, Master,
wake up! And then they said, Master, do
you care for us at all? Do you really care for us? We're
in dire straits here, we're in trouble here, we're going down
here, and do you not care? Master, carest thou not? And
listen to this, that we perish. Was there any danger of them
perishing? But to them, they was gonna perish.
I don't know about you, but I feel like a few times I thought I
was gonna perish. There's a few times that my faith
is absolutely could not, that I just felt like I didn't have
any faith. I hope you never have that experience,
but there's times that I feel like I don't have an ounce of
faith. If it comes by the ounces, if
it comes by the pounds, I ain't got an ounce. But oh my, look
what he said, oh Lord, don't you care? Can you imagine that? But oh my goodness, oh how many
times have we asked those things? I know folks has done that before.
OH MY, I KNOW FOLKS THAT TALK ABOUT HOW GOOD EVERYTHING IS
FOR EVERYBODY ELSE, BUT IT AIN'T GOOD FOR ME, AND I'M SUPPOSED
TO BE THE CHRISTIAN, I'M SUPPOSED TO BE THE BELIEVER. CARES THOU NOT? OH MY, YOU RECKON
HE DIDN'T CARE? YOU KNOW WHAT HE SAID? PETER
SAYS, CAST YOUR CARE UPON HIM, FOR HE CARES FOR YOU. CAST YOUR
CARES UPON HIM. Oh my. Do you know the fact that he
was asleep and he was composed, that ought to have told those
men something. They went down there to look at him asleep.
Well, he don't seem to, I guess everything's going to be okay.
I guess everything, if they would have just looked at him and how
composed he was and how at rest he was and how peaceful he was,
maybe they would have had some rest and maybe they would have
had some peace. Maybe THEY would have been composed! Oh, my! Carest thou not that we perish? Well, I tell you what, all we
have to do is look at our Lord Jesus Christ when He came, born of poor parents, laid in
a manger, His whole life was one of humiliation, grief and
sorrows, pain, trouble, HATRED, ENMITY, HATED WITHOUT A CAUSE,
HUH? AND THEN ALL THE SUFFERING THAT
HE WENT THROUGH, AND THEN HIS DEATH ON THE CROSS, OH MY, THAT'S
THE ANSWER, HE DON'T WANT US TO PERISH, OH NO, HE DON'T WANT
ANYBODY, OH, WHY WILL YOU DIE, HE SAYS, WHY WILL YOU DIE? OH,
HE SAID, CALL UPON ME, CALL UPON ME IN THE DAY OF THE TROUBLE,
DAY OF YOUR TROUBLE, AND HE SAID, YOU KNOW WHAT, I'LL HEAR YOU,
I'LL HEAR YOU, I'll deliver you, I'll save you. Did you know that's
what Paul said? Look over here, I think it's
1 Corinthians. I believe that's where I want
to go. I think that's where I want to go, 1 Corinthians. I think this is what I want to
look at. Nope, it's 2 Corinthians chapter
2 Corinthians 1, I believe. Oh, watch this. Verse 9, 2 Corinthians 1, verse
9, talking about, called upon me in the day of trouble. Paul
talked about in verse 8, We would not have you, brethren, to be
ignorant of our trouble, our trouble which came to us. We
were oppressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that
we said, Boy, this is going to be the end of it. This is going
to be it. We're the spirit of life. We're
going to die. We're not going to make it. And oh, but we had
the sentence of death in ourselves. We just answered and said, Well,
we're going to die this time. We're going to die. And watch
what happens. that we should not trust in ourselves,
but in God, which raises the dead. Now listen to this, who
delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver us in whom we
trust, and he'll yet deliver us. So he has saved us, he is
saving us, and he shall save us. But I tell you what, these
fellas, if they had done like that, we had the sentence of
death in ourselves. And that means that you don't
trust yourself. You don't trust yourself. Well, how did our Lord
respond to this? How did He respond? Well, He
got up, He arose, went out on the deck of that ship, out of
the deck of that boat, and look what it says, He rebuked, and
rebuked, rebuked the wind. How do you rebuke the wind? I've heard people be rebuked. You know, our Lord rebukes us,
but he said he rebuked the wind. He rebuked it. He rebuked the
wind. And then he spoke to the sea.
He spoke to the sea. Now here's a man asleep, but
let me tell you something man can't do. He can't rebuke the
wind, only God can do that. And then he spoke, he spoke to
the sea. He commanded and it was done,
and he commanded and it stood fast. I tell you, when God speaks,
it stands fast. And I tell you what, and oh,
listen, he arises to help. He said, Lord, Charis and Adam
won't perish. Well, he got up and showed them that they're
not gonna perish. Oh, no. All the things of heaven and
earth was in him. And I tell you, you know, God
in eternity, heaven and earth dwells in the person of the Lord
Jesus Christ. And it says he arose, he arose,
And oh my, he arose again for our justification. But look what
it says, he rebuked the wind and said unto the sea, spoke
to the sea. I never noticed these things
before till I was getting ready for this. Rebuked the wind, rebuked
it. And then spoke to the sea, spoke to it. What did he do when he spoke
to it? He said, peace! Be still. Calm down, is what he's saying. Be still and know that I'm God.
Be still! He spoke to the sea. Be still. Don't make another wave. Wind,
don't you blow no more. Now who in the world can do that
but God Almighty? Oh my. And I tell you what, and
I tell you this is what I love about it. He put away sin by
the sacrifice of himself. And it says he arose. You know,
our Lord Jesus Christ, he arose. So many times it talks about
in the scripture, he arose and went to Jericho. And when, oh
my, when he saw the multitude had compassion and fed the hungry,
he healed the sick, he cleansed lepers, and he raised the dead. And then when he was out in the
garden of Gethsemane, you know what he told his disciples? Peter,
John, and James went with him, and they said, now pray with
me, pray with me. Stay and pray up, stay up and
pray with me. Well, those fellows went over there and went to sleep.
He went over and woke them up, said, can you not wake up and
pray with me? And he was over there praying. Father, if it'd be possible,
let this cup pass from me. But he said, nevertheless, Not
my will, but thine be done. And then he told those fellas,
said, rise up now, let's arise, let's arise for they that are
coming after me. are here. He said, let's arise
and go forth and meet them. You know, he went forth and met
his enemies. He went forth and met the men
that was going to mistreat him. He went forth to meet Herod's
awful men, the way they'd treat him, Pilate the way they'd treat
him, and the way the high priest would treat him. He said, let's
arise. They that coming after me are
coming to get me, coming to get me. And oh my, he arose And oh
my, and this is another thing that just really astonishes me.
Look how they reacted to this. And the wind ceased and there
was a great calm after he rebuked the wind and spoke to the sea. And he said unto them, why are
you so fearful? Why are you so fearful? I asked
myself that question. Lord don't even have to ask me,
I asked myself that question. Why am I so afraid? Why am I
so afraid? Why do I get so fearful sometimes? And not only that, how is it
that you have no faith? I ask myself that a lot. I don't
know if you do, and I hope you don't, but I tell you, I ask
myself, why do you have no faith? Why is it so hard for you to
believe? Why is it so hard? Do you trust
Christ to trust God? why you find it so hard, and
I do, I really do. Sometimes I don't, and other
times I don't. I told them, I was preaching the other day, and
I said, I've got two places that I'm at most of the time. I'm
way, way down here, or I'm way, way up here. There's never no
middle ground with me. I wished I could just be like
that, but I can't. I'm either all the way down,
or I'm all the way up. No middle ground. I wished I
could just Oh my, and oh listen, look how
they reacted to this. Now they had just seen this storm,
woke the Lord Jesus Christ up, they'd just seen this storm.
And seen him calm the sea, rebuke the wind, calm the sea, speak
to it, wind ceased and there's a great calm. He asked them why
they were so fearful that they had no faith, and look how they
reacted to it now after what he had did. They feared exceedingly. He just asked them, why are you
so fearful? And the scripture said they feared exceedingly.
Exceedingly. Not just afraid just a little
bit, but I mean was absolutely terrified. And look what it said. And then they spoke one to another. Oh my, what manner of man is
this that even the wind and the sea obey him? I tell you what
kind of man he is, sinless man, God man, perfect man, God and
man together, God and man together. Let me give you a couple of things here
right quick about Christ being with us. You know, when we talk about
Christ being in the ship with us and these fellows here being
so afraid, but let me give you some things about this. When
we talk about Christ, Christ being with us and in us, the
scriptures tells us that Christ in you is the hope of glory.
Christ in you is the hope of glory. Can the boat sink when
the Son of God is with us? Huh? Can it? Can he? Oh, why are you? None that perish
can trust, none perish that can trust him. Why are you fearful?
And then Christ is in the church. He's in his people, he's in his
church. God's in the midst of her and shall help her right
early. And she shall not be moved. Our Lord Jesus walked in the
midst of the seven kind of golden sticks. And oh my. Everybody that's in that ship,
they all got to the other side, every single one of them did.
And I tell you, the church is gonna be brought all the way
to glory. Not one passenger will be missing. And I don't care how many storms
they go through, Christ's gonna get them through. And I tell
you what, we'll see him coming in his glory and his power, and
we'll certainly rejoice in it. And then Christ, not only in
you, Not unless he is in this ship. Christ is in the church,
but Christ in the scriptures, oh my. His word is forever settled
in heaven, and it can't be broken. And when we search the scriptures,
they testify of him. And with one word, one word,
he said, he spoke. Rebuked the wind, one word, the
sea stopped. Just a word, just a word. Oh
my, he speaks and it's done, he commands and it stands fast.
And you ask him, why are you so fearful? And Christ in providence,
oh my. But let me tell you something,
I hope we're this way, I hope you're that way. We don't trust
providence, we trust the God of providence. We trust the God
of providence. He rules over all things. All
things work together for good to them that love God. By him
all things consist, and he upholds things by the word of his power.
All power in heaven and earth is given unto him. That's why
our Lord said, fear not, little flock, cast your care upon him,
for he careth for you. He gives us these things to show
us what not to do, how not to act. Don't be fearful, don't be afraid. He'd never leave us, never forsake
us. Our Father, thank you for allowing
us this privilege to be here this morning. Thank you for your
word. Thank you for the truth as it
is in the Lord Jesus Christ. Lord, we need you. We sang that
old hymn, we need you, we need you. Oh, every hour we need you.
So, Lord, we look to you. We don't look to your providence.
And, oh, Lord, we certainly don't look to our feelings, though
sometimes we are fearful. We're unbelieving many times,
but we're as the man who said, Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief. Father, meet our needs. Meet
the needs of the sick among us. Save your people in this place
and do it for Christ's sake. Amen, amen. Let's turn to 318
in the hymn book, and we'll sing that, and then you'll be at liberty
to go. 318. We'll stand together, and when
we get ready, when I'm done with this, y'all can go. You're at
liberty to go. 318. I need Thee every hour, most
gracious Lord. No tender voice like Thine can
peace afford. 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 nearby. Temptations lose 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
? In joy or pain Come quickly and abide ? Or life is vain ?
? I need Thee, oh, I need Thee ? ? Every hour I need Thee ?
