[Intro 1]
[Em][C][G][Em][Asus4][Am][F][Dsus4][G]

[Verse 1]
I'd [G]rather have Jesus [C]than silver or [G]gold,
I'd [Em]rather be His than [F]have
riches untold;
[Dsus4]I'd rathe[G]r have Jesus
than [C]houses or [G]lands,
I'd [Em]rather be [G]led [C]by His
[G]nail- [Dsus4]pierced h[G]and.
[Em]Than to be

[Verse 2]
[D]the king of a vas[G]t dom[C]ain[G]
And [D]be held in [B]sin's [Em]dread [C]sway.
[G]I'd rather have Jesus [C]than anything
[G]This wor[Am]ld affor[Dsus4]ds today.
[G]

[Verse 3]
[G]I'd rather have [C]Jesus than
men's ap[G]plause,
[Bm]I'd rather be faithf[E]ul t[Am]o His
[G]dear [Dsus4]cause;
[G]I'd rather have Jesus [C]than
[G]worldwide fame,
I'd rather be true [C]to [G]His
[Dsus4]holy name[G].[D]
[Em]Than to

[Verse 4]
[D]be the kin[C]g of a vas[G]t dom[C]ain[G]
And [D]be held [Ebdim]in sin's [B]dre[Em]ad swa[C]y.
I'd [G]rather have [C]Jesus than anything
[G]This wor[Em]ld affor[Dsus4]ds
[Gsus4]today.[G]

[Verse 5]
He's fairer than lilies of [Eb]rarest[Dm][C][G]
[Eb]bloo[Dm]m,[C][G][Em][Am][F][G][C]
He's [Em]sweeter than honey
from out the comb;
He's all that my hungering spirit needs,
I'd [Dsus4]rather ha[G]ve Jesus
[C]and let Him[G] lead.

[Verse 6]
Than to [G]be the king of a vast domain
And be [Am]held in sin's dread [F]sway.
I'd [Dsus4]rather have Jesus
[Em]than any[C]thing[Em]
This [Asus4]world affords [G]today.
