Blodgett Quartet Jesus How I Need Thee


What fun for me to have family get together at my birthday party. My three children, Barry, Katie and Jason were good enough to offer their voices to my number 24th song for 2015. We use to be able to get together and sing all the time but as families grow and everyone is going in a different direction it is not that easy to do. I was just so blessed to have this time to sing with the kids.
The Lord gave me this song back in the early 70s. I trust that the Holy Spirit will bless you with music and lyric.

Oh for a drop of the blood that was shed so recklessly,
Oh for a touch of the hands that were scarred at Calvary
Oh for a spark of the wisdom that’s given so I might see,
A glimpse of the glory that’s promised for you and for me.

Jesus, How I need thee,
Oh, Spirit, Heaven speed thee,
Father, send the spirit to guide us on our way.
Glory to the Father,
The one God, there’s no other,
Perfect in your wisdom and mercy

For the wonders of your infinite love
I thank you Lord.
Thank you for the wisdom of your precious word,
We gather together to praise your name in one accord.
I know that I’m saved and I’m giving my life to my Lord.

Jesus, How I need thee,
Oh, Spirit, Heaven speed thee,
Father, send the spirit to guide us on our way.
Glory to the Father,
The one God, there’s no other.
Perfect in your wisdom and mercy.

The stars in the heavens and all of creation belong to thee.
From the dawning of time you love has shined through history.
At the very mention of your sweet name my troubles flee.
Thank you for all of the wonders that you’ve shown to me.

Jesus, How I need thee,
Oh, Spirit, Heaven speed thee,
Father, send the spirit to guide us on our way.
Glory to the Father,
The one God, there’s no other,
Perfect in your wisdom and mercy.

Perfect in your wisdom and mercy.
