Leigh Nash - I Need Thee Every Hour - The Tide Acoustic Sessions (CCM)



Leigh Nash - I Need Thee Every Hour - The Tide Acoustic Sessions
On Friday, November 18, Leigh Nash shared new music with this track titled 'I Need Thee Every Hour - The Tide Acoustic Sessions'.

In this video (below), she performs the well-known song 'I Need Thee Every Hour' acoustically.

This song was originally written by Annie Sherwood Hawks in 1872. She wrote it after a religious experience and realized how much she needed God in her life.

Hawks was a New York native who began writing at the age of 14 and contributed poems to various newspapers throughout her life. She wrote over 400 hymns in total, but only one—this one—is still sung today.

Lowry added music for the hymn as he wrote it down for her.

After her husband died, Hawks reflected on how powerful this song was: 'I did not understand at first why this hymn had touched the great throbbing heart of humanity. It was not until long after, when the shadow fell over my way, the shadow of a great loss, that I understood something of the comforting power in the words which I had been permitted to give out to others in my hour of sweet serenity and peace.'


We are happy to be able to share the lyrics with you.

The official audio can be heard below.

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"Welcome To Your Life" by Howard Gripp: A Fresh Start, Every Morning

What would change if today felt brand new?  Howard Gripp asked himself that same question on a beach, watching waves erase impressions in the sand, making the beach look as new again. He wasn’t planning to write a song. He was just sitting there, reflecting on his own journey, and recalling the day he realized he could leave his past behind and start fresh. That memory became the key message of this song: “every day is an opportunity for a new beginning.”   The lyrics open with Howard standing “out on the ocean’s edge,” the breeze in his head, the waves making “everything so clear.” Clarity like that doesn’t usually come from noise. It comes from stillness. “See your past, like footprints in the sand // Slowly fade as the tide rolls in.” Footprints don’t argue with the tide; they can’t, they’re powerless. They just vanish, one wave at a time.  Psalm 103:12 says the same thing, only louder, and puts it this way: “as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remov...

"Let It Rise - Live" by Hope Worship: When Surrender Becomes Worship

What if surrender opened the door to change?  Some songs ask nothing of you. “Let It Rise — Live” asks everything. Hope Worship wrote this song as a simple invitation that is meant to feel welcoming rather than complicated: ask the Holy Spirit to have His way in you. No hidden agenda, no complex theology lesson. Just an open door for the Holy Spirit.  Hope Worship repeats a line that sounds a bit risky: “Break my heart open.” Why would anyone ask for that? Because a closed heart can’t hold much of anything new. The song builds from that vulnerable request into a rising cry: “Let it rise like incense.” Picture the smoke curling upward, unhurried, unstoppable. That’s what surrendered worship looks like.  Keep that picture of incense in mind as you read Psalm 141:2, “Let my prayer be counted as incense before you, and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.” David was offering something real, something costly, and trusting that God would receive it. Your daily...
