I'll Take Jesus

Verse I
As they gambled for the robe He wore
They chose a worldly trail
And they didn't think of eternity
As the soldiers drove the nails
Will we learn from what they done
Or make the same mistake
Jesus or the world my child
Which one will you take

Chorus
I'll take Jesus, I'll take Jesus
I tried these worldly pleasures and they failed
When you see the gates of Heaven
And you hear the Master say
Me or the world my child
Which one did you take

Verse II
When the pages of my life have turned
And time has rolled away
The greatest deeds that I have done
Won't help me on that day
And all my earthly treasures
That I have laid away
They'll be to me just a memory
And this you'll hear me say

I love this song but I have heard a female sing it. Anyone know who she is? I have been trying for years to find out who she is. Beautiful soprano voice, recorded at least before 2001 (that's when I first heard it) when she sings, you know it is from her heart! There were no back up vocals, just her. Please if anyone knows, answer here!!! I would love to have more of her singing
