Oh I′d rather have Jesus than silver or gold
I'd rather be His than have riches untold
Oh I′d rather have Jesus than houses or land
I'd rather be led by His nail-scarred hand
Than to be the queen of a vast domain
And be held in sin's dread sway
Oh I′d rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today
Oh I′d rather have Jesus than worldly applause
I'd rather be faithful to His dear cause
I′d rather have Jesus than worldwide fame
Yes, I'd rather be true to His holy name
Than to be the queen of a vast domain
Or be held in sin′s dread sway
Oh I'd rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today
Oh I′d rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today
