18. The Apostles' Song

1 Jesus called them one by one,
Peter, Andrew, James and John.
Next came Phillip, Thomas too,
Matthew and Bartholomew.

Refrain:
Yes, Jesus called them
Yes, Jesus called them,
Yes, Jesus called them
and they all followed Him.

2 James the one they called the less.
Simon also Thaddaeus,
Twelve Apostles Judas made,
Jesus was by him betrayed. [Refrain]
