NEED OF JESUS.

I need thee, precious Jesus, For I am full of sin; My soul is dark and guilty, My heart is dead within. I need the cleansing fountain, Where I can always flee— The blood of Christ most precious, The sinner's only plea.

I need thee, precious Jesus, For I am very poor— A stranger and a pilgrim, I have no earthly store. I need the love of Jesus, To cheer me on my way; To guide my doubting footsteps, To be my strength and stay.

I need thee, precious Jesus, I need a friend like thee! A friend to soothe and sympathize, A friend to care for me. I need the heart of Jesus, To feel each anxious care— To tell my every trouble, And all my sorrows share.

I need thee, precious Jesus, For I am very blind— A weak and foolish wanderer, With dark and evil mind! I need thy charming presence To tread the narrow road, To guide me safe to glory, To bring me home to God.
