I'd Rather Have Jesus
1st Verse
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 and lands.
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.
2nd verse
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-wife fame.
I'd rather be true to His holy name.
3rd verse
He's fairer than lilies of rarest bloom;
He's sweeter than honey from out the comb;
He's all that my hungering spirit needs.
I'd rather have Jesus and let Him lead.
(Mrs. Rhea F. Miller, George B. Shea)
