They lived simple lives
They were just ordinary men
but that all changed
when they were chosen by him
There were twelve in all
from different walks of life
They were to answer the call
that would lead to much strife
Through it all
they learned who he was
They served him well
and furthered his cause
They are gone now
They went to be with him
So it is up to us
to go out on a limb
To take up the cross
and for him we will run
To tell others about Jesus
and what he has done
