Twelve groups of stars Surrounding God's heaven
Same as the tribes
The twelve tribes of Israel
Each hold a sign Surrounding God's presence
Blurring the lines 'tween here and his residence
Twelve makes a day
Twelve tones in music
Twelve months a year
Do you think it's an accident?
Christ as the Sun Pictures the Father
Sorrounded by twelve That he calls his brothers
Twelve precious stones Upon the Priests Ephod
Twelve were the sons The twelve sons of Jacob
Twelve oxen held In Solomon's temple
Three thousand baths
To cleanse all the Levites
Christ built his church Upon twelve apostles
And three thousand souls Were added at Pentecost
Christ built His church
Upon twelve apostles
And three thousand souls
Were added at Pentecost
And then after all,
with our backs against the wall
We seek the temple of the living God
We seek the temple of the living God
