I'd rather have Jesus than silver or gold |
|
I'd rather be His than have riches untold |
|
I'd rather have Jesus than houses or lands |
|
I'd rather be led by His nail pierced hands |
|
Than to be a king of a best domain |
|
And be held in sin's dread sway |
|
I'd rather have Jesus |
|
Than anything this world affords today |
|
I'd rather have Jesus than worldly applause |
|
I'd rather be faithful to His dear cause |
|
I'd rather have Jesus than worldwide fame |
|
Yes, I'd rather be true to His holy name |
|
Than to be a king of a best domain |
|
And be held in sin's dread sway |
|
I'd rather have Jesus |
|
Than anything this world affords today |
