This arrangement presents the well-known Christian hymn "I Need Thee Every Hour," featuring a violin with piano accompaniment. The melody, originally composed by the 19th-century American preacher Robert Lowry, is combined with lyrics penned by Annie Hawks, an American poet and hymnist from the same era. The lyrics of the hymn express a deep, personal yearning for a spiritual connection, reflecting Hawks' own profound experience of divine presence. She described this inspiration as occurring one June morning in 1872, during her regular household activities, when she was overwhelmed by a feeling of closeness to God, leading her to ponder the indispensability of this divine presence in all aspects of life. This moment led to the creation of the hymn's enduring words, "I Need Thee Every Hour."
