I'll Just Take Jesus

All I want is Jesus,
For He's everything to me;
Though earthly things are fleeting,
He'll be with me for eternity.

This world has much to offer,
That would try to take His place;
But I would give up all I have
To look upon His face.

I'd rather be the poorest soul
Who ever walked this sod
Than try to live one moment
Without the Son of God.

You can have all the wealth
From here to eternity;
As for me, I'll just take Jesus,
For He's all I'll ever need.
