I’d Rather Have Jesus Lyrics

Song by Jim Reeves

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
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
Yes, 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

“The Prodigal Son,” performed by The Cathedrals featuring Glenn Payne, is a stirring rendition that brings to life one of the most beloved parables from the Bible. The story of the Prodigal Son, which is found in Luke 15:11-32, revolves around the themes of redemption, forgiveness, and unconditional love. Through Payne’s powerful voice and the ensemble’s harmonies, the performance captures the emotional journey of the wayward son who, after squandering his inheritance on reckless living, returns home in shame and regret. The Cathedrals, renowned for their rich harmonies and uplifting gospel music, infuse the narrative with a sense of hope and reconciliation.

Known for their rich harmonies and powerful vocal arrangements, the group became a staple in the southern gospel genre.

From 1964 through 1999, a group many cite as the finest example of Southern Gospel quartet singing ever, toured the nation and the world. The Cathedrals, a Christian quartet that consisted of Ernie Haase, Scott Fowler, Glen Payne, George Younce, Danny Funderburk, and Roger Bennett, hailed from the south and started in 1964. Their charismatic performances and heartfelt messages captured the hearts of fans across the United States and beyond.

The Prodigal Son Lyrics


1. Like the prodigal son I wandered in darkness
And I traded my life for a world of good time
No peace in my heart I ever could find
And I got so tired feeding after the swine

(Chorus)
So I believe I’ll go home and eat with the Father
The table is spread and they’re waiting for me
I can see the Father coming out to greet me
“Lord I’m willing to be just a servant for Thee”

2. Like the prodigal son I wandered from Jesus
But the Good Shepherd saw through the heat and the cold
The ninety and nine He left in the fold
Just to find this lost sheep that was hungry and cold

We Shall See Jesus Lyrics

Once on a hillside, people were gathered
Hoping to see Him, as thousands were fed
He touched the blind eyes, healed broken spirits
He moved with compassion, while He raised up the dead

Once on a hillside, people were gathered
Watching as Jesus was crucified
No one showed mercy, to the one who had healed them
Yet, Jesus loved them, as He suffered and died

Once on a hillside, people were gathered
For Jesus had risen and soon would ascend
Then, as He blessed them, He rose to the heavens
And gave them His promise to come back again

We shall see Jesus, just as they saw Him
There is no greater promise than this
When He returns in power and glory
We shall see Jesus, we shall see Jesus, just as He is!
