      Verse One:

      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....

       The Chorus:

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

      Verse Two:

      I'd rather have Jesus...than men's applause......
      I'd rather be faithful...to His dear cause...
      I'd rather have Jesus....than world-wide fame....
      I'd rather be true....to His Holy name....

      Verse Three:

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

       The Chorus:

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

      Tag

      This world affords...today........
      O this world....affords today.......
