I`d Rather Have Jesus — текст песни (Crystal Lewis)

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 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.

I`d rather have Jesus than men`s 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.

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.

He`s fairer than lilies of rarest bloom,
He`s sweeter than honey from out the comb;
He`s all that my hungering spirit needs,
I`d rather have Jesus and let Him lead.

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.
