Lyrics

There were twelve dis­ci­ples Je­sus called to help him:
Simon Pe­ter, An­drew, James, his bro­ther John,
Philip, Tho­mas, Mat­thew, James the son of Al­phae­us,
Thaddeus, Si­mon, Ju­das, and Bar­tho­lo­mew.
He has called us, too. He has called us, too.
We are His dis­ci­ples, I am one and you!
He has called us, too. He has called us, too.
We are His dis­ci­ples, I am one and you!
