Lyrics

Verse 1 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 hand: Chorus Than to be the king of a vast domain, Or be held in sin's dread sway. I'd rather have Jesus than anything This world affords today. Verse 2 I'd rather have Jesus than men's applause, I'd rather be faithful to His dear cause; I'd rather have Jesus than world-wide fame, I'd rather be true to His holy Name Chorus Than to be the king of a vast domain, Or be held in sin's dread sway. I'd rather have Jesus than anything This world affords today. Verse 3 He's fairer than lilies of rarest bloom, He's sweeter than honey from out of the comb; He's all that my hungering spirit needs I'd rather have Jesus and let Him lead Chorus Than to be the king of a vast domain, Or be held in sin's dread sway. I'd rather have Jesus than anything This world affords today.
