I Need My Saviour

Author: W. S. Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: When I am tried and sorely tempted Refrain First Line: O, I need Thee, yes, I need Thee Lyrics: 1 When I am tried and sorely tempted, Jesus calms my every fear; When life’s sorrows sore afflict me; Then I know my Saviour’s near. Refrain: O, I need Thee, yes, I need Thee, Every day and every hour! Thou art comforting and blessing, Even now I feel Thy pow’r! 2 When foes unite and dangers threaten, Jesus calms my every fear; When my heart is heavy laden, Then I feel my Saviour’s near. [Refrain] 3 When I’m despised, rebuked, forsaken, Jesus calms my every fear; When I’m weak, and flesh is failing, Then I feel my Saviour’s near. [Refrain] 4 When in His promises I’m trusting, Jesus calms my every fear; When my heart is burning, glowing, Then I know my Saviour’s near. [Refrain] 5 And when at last I reach death’s river, He will calm my every fear; Lead me on to be forever With Him and the Father dear. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [When I am tired and sorely tempted]
