Artist/Band: Jim Reeves
Lyrics for Song: I'd Rather Have Jesus
Lyrics for Album: The Best of Jim Reeves: 20 Gospel Favorites [IMPORT] [2002]



(Rhea F. Miller - George B. Shea)



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 land,

Yes, I'd rather be led by His nail-pierced hand.



Chorus

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.



--- Instrumental ---



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,

I'd rather be true to His holy name.



Chorus

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...
