1 More and more I need thee,
Precious Friend divine;
More and more I need thee,
In this heart of mine;
Thou hast led me ever,
Still my refuge be;
Saviour, loving Saviour,
Abide with me.

Refrain:
More and more I need thee,
O I need thee!
Saviour, loving Saviour,
Abide with me.

2 More and more I need thee,
Thou, my all in all;
More and more I need thee,
Lest I faint and fall;
I am weak and helpless,
Thou, my strength must be;
Saviour, loving Saviour,
Abide with me. [Refrain]

3 More and more I need thee,
In temptation’s hour;
More and more I need thee,
Need thy keeping power;
Let my soul uplifted,
Cling by faith to thee;
Saviour, loving Saviour,
Abide with me. [Refrain]

4 More and more I need thee,
While the days go by;
More and more I need thee,
While the moments fly;
In thy secret presence,
Let my dwelling be;
Saviour, loving Saviour,
Abide with me. [Refrain]
