~ I’d rather have Jesus’ Forty years ago, Bev Shea was involved in Bible school in Ottawa (Ontario), where I studied. He loved to sing. After more training in New York he was given an audition in one of the radio stations and is offered a contract. He said that he could sing gospel songs. He said that he can use one from time to time, but he will have to use songs in the hit parade. What would you do? His mother prays. On Saturday night she put a poem on the piano. In the morning he composed music for it. One verse is: “I’d rather have Jesus than silver and gold, I’d rather have Jesus than worldwide fame, I prefer to be true to His holy name!” Bev reject the treaty. -R. Barclay Warren ++++++++++- I’d rather Jesus (1) I’d rather have Jesus than silver or gold, I prefer to have his wealth of untold I’d rather have Jesus than houses and lands, prefer to be guided by the nail-pierced his hand. Chorus: than be the king of a vast area or will be held in dread sin power, I prefer to have everything that Jesus This world offers today. (2) 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. (3) It is more beautiful than Liles of the rarest bloom, He’s sweeter than honey from the comb said, He is all my starving spirit needs I’d rather have Jesus and bring him.
