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 land
I'd rather be led
By His nail pierced hands
Than to be the queen
Of the best domain
And beheld in sin's
Dreads way
I'd rather have Jesus
Than anything
This world affords today
I'd rather have Jesus
Than men's applause
I'd rather be faithful
To His dear cause
I'd rather have Jesus
Then world wide things
I'd rather be true
To His holy name
Than to be the queen
Of the best domain
And beheld in sin's
Dreads way
I'd rather have Jesus
Than anything
This world affords today
