Lyrics I'd Rather Have Jesus - Jimmy Swaggart

I'd rather have Jesus than silver or gold
I'd rather have Jesus than have riches untold;
I would rather have Jesus than houses or land
Yes, I would 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
Oh I'd rather have Jesus than anything
That this world affords today

Oh I'd rather have Jesus than men's applause
I would rather be true to His dear Cause;
Oh I'd rather have Jesus than worldwide fame
I would rather be true to His Holy Name

Than to be a king of a vast domain
And be held in sin's dread sway
Oh I'd rather have Jesus than anything
That this world affords today...
