Diane Tuiofu Music

"I Need The Every Hour" is a prayer of the heart unto the Lord. It is a beloved hymn for its lyrics, which suggest a constant need and reliance upon the Lord for comfort, power to overcome temptations, hope, and belonging to Christ. The music is matched so well by Robert Lowry.  Lyricist, Annie Hawks, wrote, "I remember well the morning when in the midst of the daily cares of my home, I was so filled with the sense of the nearness of the Master, that wondering how one could live without him either in joy or pain, these words 'I Need Thee Every Hour' were ushered into my mind. The hymn was wafted out to the world on the wings of love and joy, rather than under the stress of great personal sorrow. It was not until long years after when the shadow of a great loss fell over my way that I understood something of the comforting in the words I have been permitted to write."
