[00:00.50]I'd rather have Jesus than silver or gold;
[00:06.70]I'd rather be His than have riches untold;
[00:13.30]I'd rather have Jesus than houses or lands;
[00:19.90]I'd rather be led by His nail-pierced hand
[00:26.00]Than to be the king of a vast domain
[00:32.60]Or be held in sin's dread sway;
[00:39.40]I'd rather have Jesus than anything
[00:46.00]This world affords today.
[00:52.60]He's fairer than lilies of rarest bloom;
[00:59.00]He's sweeter than honey from out the comb;
[01:05.80]He's all that my hungering spirit needs;
[01:12.20]I'd rather have Jesus and let Him lead
[01:18.40]Than to be the king of a vast domain
[01:25.00]Or be held in sin's dread sway;
[01:31.40]Than to be the king of a vast domain
[01:38.00]Or be held in sin's dread sway;
[01:45.00]I'd rather have Jesus than anything
[01:51.60]This world affords today.
