This hymn has a unique tune

 

 1  I need Jesus, my need I now confess;

    No friend like Him in times of deep distress;

    I need Jesus, the need I gladly own;

    Though some may bear their load alone,

       Yet I need Jesus.

 

I need Jesus, I need Jesus,

   I need Jesus every day;

Need Him in the sunshine hour,

Need Him when the storm-clouds low'r;

Every day along my way,

   Yes, I need Jesus.

 

 2  I need Jesus, I need a friend like Him,

    A friend to guide when paths of life are dim;

    I need Jesus, when foes my soul assail;

    Alone I know I can but fail,

       So I need Jesus.

 

I need Jesus, I need Jesus,

   I need Jesus every day;

Need Him in the sunshine hour,

Need Him when the storm-clouds low'r;

Every day along my way,

   Yes, I need Jesus.

 

 3  I need Jesus, I need Him to the end;

    No one like Him, He is the sinner's friend;

    I need Jesus, no other friend will do;

    So constant, kind, so strong and true,

       Yes, I need Jesus.

 

I need Jesus, I need Jesus,

   I need Jesus every day;

Need Him in the sunshine hour,

Need Him when the storm-clouds low'r;

Every day along my way,

   Yes, I need Jesus.
