Annie Sherwood Hawks composed the lyrics to 'I Need Thee Every Hour' in a time where things were very well in her life. She describes how the song took on new meaning at the death of her husband. The song conveys a need for the Lord's presence in order for life to be altogether meaningful. This hymn serves as the backdrop to understanding our constant need for God in all areas of our lives.
