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.
(Chorus:)
  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.
3. 1 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.
(Chorus:)
  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.
