Je score:
Jesus had many disciples to help him spread the word But most of them left him, because they just didn't have it And the only way to get it is for God to give it to you So he was left with twelve, eleven good man and one devil But the ministry had begun, things were starting to build Jesus and the pray for passes twelve Simon Peter, Andrew, James and Phillip, Thomas, Matthew Bartholomew and Simon, Judas, Judas, James and John Andrew go and tell your brother Peter to come a runnin' Tell him the one he's waitin' for is waitin' for him The two He calls the Son's of Thunder quit their jobs this mornin' And for eternal revenue Matthew is cashin' in Phillip tell Bartholomew there's somethin' good from Nazareth They've never met but Jesus seems to know him through and through And Thomas, he'll go with you don't you doubt it for a minute James the less and Judas and the zealot Simon too Simon Peter, Andrew, James, Phillip, Thomas, Matthew Bartholomew, Simon, Judas, Judas, James, John Travelin' round from town to town preachin' gets expensive So they took along some women who took along some wealth And the twelfth one was chosen to be their trusted treasure Would you believe Judas Iscariot himself Next Sunday mornin' when your mind starts to wander And that Pulpit prayer gets long and you start thinkin' 'bout yourself Ask in heart if you would part with family, friends and money And leave it all for Jesus like the brave Apostles twelve Peter, Andrew, James and Phillip, Thomas, Simon, Matthew Bartholomew and Judas, Judas, James and John and you
