I'D Rather Have Jesus

I'd rather have Jesus
Than silver and gold
I'd rather be his,than have riches untold
.
I'd rather have Jesus,than houses or land
Yes i'd rather be led by his nail pierced hand
Than to be a king in a vast domain
.
I'd rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today
I'd rather have Jesus than worldly applause
I'd rather have Jesus than worldwide fame
Yes i'd rather be truthful to his holy name.
