Am leaving a comment here so when someone likes it reminds me of this song. And the one who shared me this song 😢

Being a Christian is the best ! ! ! ! ! ! !

I’m a 70’s child. He was one of my dad’s favorite singers, every Sunday we would wake up to his songs. I feel such peace listening to his songs. I love them all and still listen to them.

I came to be 20 years afterwards. Still, I can also appreciate its beauty. Heard the Brazilian version (which is quite a bit diferent) and came to check the original. Not disappointed 🙂.

Sharon Miller: Like you, I'm a '70s child and vividly remember my late mother playing Jim Reeves Songs. However, it was his Secular music that she played. I discovered his AMAZING Gospel Music on my own, in my middle age.

Not to have a critical spirit, but this song speaks more to me in 3 minutes than 30 minutes of a lot of contemporary Christian music.

Absolutely agree. Praise the Lord.

(I Was Raised in a Home whereby My Mother was a Deep Christian Listening to Jim Reeves Worship Songs. I had no Clue about Salvation and Eternal Life. My Mom placed her Children in Church and Sunday School at a very tender age. I drifted Away from the Christian Values and only got Saved in 1998 at the age of 41 yrs by God's Grace, Mercy and Love. It took me a while to Experience Christian Growth and Development. Thus a Song of this Nature gives me a A Clear Earthly and Eternal Revelation and Education that Having Precious and Wonderful Jesus Christ in your Life is Much more important than Earthly and Material achievements Such as Gold,Houses,Land, Millionaire Status that are all Temporary Earthly success with no Eternal Value or Rewards from Almighty God. (🙏🛐📖✝️)

6/4/2024: The gift 🎁 of THIS . . .day, I'm SO GRATEFUL for🙌🏿👐🏿!! PAIN-FREE? Nausea-Free? Hallelujah!!

I'm a 90s child I grow up listening to him reeves music my dad may the lord Jesus bless his soul in his kingdom my dad was a lover of Jim reeves and grow up listening to Jim reeves my dad was a Christian I will always love Jesus and follow him weather my mom is Hindu and she don't like me for it I will always follow Jesus Christ the son of god

I remember my grandfather singing this hymn, then my mother. Jesus has a message that goes on and on. All those who put their trust in Him will see Him again.

I love hearing Jim Reeves sing this song. I pray he is now with Christ resting with God in eternal Peace. 🙏✝️❤

"I'd Rather Have Jesus" 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 land, Yes, I'd rather be led by His nail-pierced hand. Than to be the king of a vast domain And be held in sin's dread sway I'd rather have Jesus than anything This world affords today. I'd rather have Jesus than worldly 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 the king of a vast domain And be held in sin's dread sway I'd rather have Jesus than anything This world affords today...

In my childhood days, our family used to listen to this spiritual by Jim Reeves in the late 60's and early 70's, back in my birth country, Sri Lanka. It was also one of the most requested songs on Radio Ceylon, subsequently Sri Lanka broadcasting Corporation. Thank you for sharing.

Glory to God Hallelujah 🙏 I'd rather have Jesus Amen 🙏

6/8/2022: Shortly after the gift of opening my eyes from slumber, this song was in my head. STILL have NOT memorized the lyrics as well as I thought.

I loved to. Listen to Jim reeves before I got saved at 42yrs now hitting 78yrs

Jesus still had the red marks on his hands in heaven its a sign of how much he loves us

This is so true all the world will pass away only God's Word will remain

I too rather have JESUS than anything.......

Lovely music,song... Thats so true.❤️❤️❤️🌹🕊️🙏

Do Christians today still have such desires?

I love this evergreen and everlasting song, as also many such soulful songs of Jim Reeves. Such peace and tranquility! It elevates your soul to lofty realms. Please note some typos and inaccuracies in the Lyrics/subtitles: - king of a VAST domain (not 'best') - and be held in sin's great sway - worldwide FAME (not 'world wide things') - houses or lands (to rhyme with 'hands')

vast domains!!!! world wide fame!!!!
