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 hands

Chorus:
Than to be a king of a vast domain
And be held in sin's dread sway
I'd rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today

I'd rather have Jesus than man's applause
See, I'd rather be faithful to His dear cause
I'd rather have my Jesus than all worldwide fame
I'd rather be true, true to His holy [to his], holy name

(Chorus)

Oh yes, I'd rather have Jesus than anything
This world can afford [can afford] today
I'd rather have You, Jesus, more than anything
