I’d Rather Have Jesus

Song Info

A A7 D A E D A Intro: 4/4 +|+++|+++|+++|+++|+++|+++|+++|++I’d A A7 D A 1. I’d rather have Jesus than silver or gold; 2. I’d rather have Jesus than men’s applause; 3. He’s fairer than lilies of rarest bloom; E E7 I’d rather be His than have riches untold; I’d rather be faithful to His dear cause; He’s sweeter than honey from out the comb; A A7 D A I’d rather have Jesus than houses or lands; I’d rather have Jesus than world-wide fame; He’s all that my hungering spirit needs, F#m Bm E A I’d rather be led by His nail-pierced hand. I’d rather be true to His holy name. I’d rather have Jesus and let Him lead. E E7 D A Than to be the king of a vast domain E E7 D A Or be held in sin’s dread sway; A7 D A I’d rather have Jesus than anything E D A This world affords today.
