Hymns - I'd Rather Have Jesus - Текст песни

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 lands;
I???d rather be led by His nail-pierced hand

Refrain:
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.

I???d rather have Jesus than men???s applause;
I???d rather be faithful to His dear cause;
I???d rather have Jesus than worldwide fame;
I???d rather be true to His holy name

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
