I'd Rather Have Jesus (Live)

I'd rather have jesus than silver or gold

I'd rather have him than riches untold

I'd rather have jesus than fine houses or great lands

You see

I just want to be led by his nail scarred hands

Than to be a king of a vast domain

Than be held in sin's dread sway

I'd rather have jesus more than anything

That this old crazy world can afford me today

I'd rather have jesus more than man's applause or approval

See I'd try to be faithful to his dear cause

I'd rather have jesus more than all the world wide fame

Don't you know I gotta

I gotta be

I gotta be true to my lord's holy name

Than to be a king of a vast domain than be held in sin's dread sway

I'd rather have my jesus more than anything

That this old world can afford me today

More than this world can afford

Lord

We love you more than anything
