Alison Krauss - I'd Rather Have Jesus - Текст песни

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.

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

--- Fiddle - Guitar Instrumental ---

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 a king of a vast domain
Or be held in sin's dread sway
I'd rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today.
