Traducción de la letra de la canción I'd Rather Have Jesus - Alison Krauss, The Cox Family

I'd Rather Have Jesus (original)

SELAH
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

I'd Rather Have Jesus (traducción)

SELAH
Prefiero tener a Jesús que plata u oro
Prefiero ser suyo que tener riquezas incalculables
Prefiero tener a Jesús que casas o tierras
Sí, prefiero ser guiado por Su mano perforada por los clavos
Que ser el rey de un vasto dominio
Y ser retenido en el pavoroso dominio del pecado
Prefiero tener a Jesús que cualquier cosa
Este mundo ofrece hoy
Prefiero tener a Jesús que aplausos mundanos
Prefiero ser fiel a su querida causa
Prefiero tener a Jesús que la fama mundial
Prefiero ser fiel a Su santo nombre
Que ser el rey de un vasto dominio
Y ser retenido en el pavoroso dominio del pecado
Prefiero tener a Jesús que cualquier cosa
Este mundo ofrece hoy
