I'd rather have Jesus than silver or gold
I'd rather have Him than riches untold
I'd rather have Jesus than houses or land
I'd rather be led by His nail-scarred hand
Than to be the king of a vast domain
And be held in sin's dread sway
I'd rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today
Than to be the king of a vast domain
And be held in sin's dread sway
I'd rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today
