The Twelve

Back The Twelve

The Twelve

Jesus called them
Then they followed
Jesus taught them
Pride was swallowed
They believed but -
'Was this real?'

He recalled them
They returned back
They were sent out
They proclaimed so
Men repented
Men were healed

Refrain:
These disciples were known as the twelve

From some bread loaves
Thousands were filled
They were frightened
Then the sea stilled
Though amazed, they
Soon forgot

Then more thousands
Had a hunger
More sea storms that
Made them shudder
They did not get
What was taught

Bridge:
They weren't able
Just by themselves
But were willing
To be used
Those of little faith
Got to know the One
Who makes the way

Jesus raised them
From the common
They sought greatness
From the Sovereign
At the start of
Something huge

Jesus charged them
With the mission
Seeking people
Like when fishin'
Sharing with them
His good news

These disciples were known as the twelve

Jesus warned them
They'll deny Him
After this, though,
They would find Him
'Cause they were His
Brothers, too

With these things they'd
Soon remember
It is written
It is rendered
Of the things that
They went through

These disciples were known as the twelve
These disciples were known as the twelve
These disciples were known as the twelve
