I’d Rather Have Jesus

I'd rather have Jesus more than silver or gold
I'd much rather, oh, I'd rather be His, than have riches untold
And I'd rather, I'd rather have Jesus more than houses, houses or land
I'd much rather, oh, I'd rather be led by His nail-scarred hand
And I'd rather, I'd rather have Jesus more than men's applause
I'd much rather, I'd rather be faithful to His dear cause, oh, yes
I'd much rather, I'd much rather, tell me, wouldn't you rather have Jesus
More than any, more than anything
This whole world can afford, not even Rockefeller could afford, today?

Than to be, than to be king or queen of a vast, of a vast domain
And be held, I don't want to be held in sin's, sin's dread sway, oh, no
I'd much rather, I'd much rather, I'd rather have Jesus more than any
Yes, more than anything
This whole world could afford, world could afford today
Oh, yes, than to be, than to be king or queen of a vast, of a vast domain
And be held, I don't want to be held in sin's, sin's dread sway, oh, no
I'd much rather, I'd much rather, tell me, wouldn't you rather have Jesus
More than any, more than anything
This whole world can afford today?
