Philippians 3:8 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,
To know Jesus in salvation is just the beginning.
Every mile reveals more of His glory, every burden His grace.
He is a Friend that sticks closer than a brother.
He reveals Himself in the storm and in the sunshine.
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 lands. — I'd rather be led by His nail pierced hand.
CHORUS:
Than to be the king of a vast domain — Or be held in sin's dread sway. — I'd rather have Jesus than anything — This world affords today.
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. - - -
He's fairer than lilies of rarest bloom; — He's sweeter than honey from out the comb; — He's all that my hungering spirit needs. — I'd rather have Jesus and let Him lead. - - -
