Jesus climbed up a high mountain,
To call fishermen from the sea;
These men were first to hear His voice,
When He called out, "Come, follow Me!"
Peter and Andrew, James and John,
Four fishermen from Galilee;
Peter and Andrew were brothers,
James and John sons of Zebedee.
Philip, a friend of these brothers,
Pulled fish from that very same sea;
Jesus called Philip to follow,
He said, "Philip, come walk with Me!"
As Matthew, Thaddeus and James,
Kelt down 'neath the shade of a tree;
Jesus whispered each of their names,
He commissioned the brothers three.
Simon the Zealot was summoned,
He fished from a boat on the sea;
Jesus waved to this fisherman,
Shouted, "Come, fish for men with Me!"

| One more Galilean joined them, All but one came from Galilee; This man is called Doubting Thomas, He doubted, so he could believe. Jesus picked one of noble birth, Bartholomew was royalty; The son of the King of Geshur, Said, "I'll follow you Lord willingly." The traitor betrayed our savior, His prize a bag full of money; For thirty pieces of silver, Judas sold our Most Holy. Jesus loved all His disciples, He chose them all so carefully; They followed in Jesus footsteps, As they witnessed His words and deeds. All twelve were loyal to the end, A fisherman holds heaven's key; All twelve were very special men, Judas' love, was the mystery! |

And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach.
