Neal Morse - 12 lyrics

Twelve groups of stars (Rev 12:1) Surrounding God's heaven Same as the tribes The twelve tribes of Israel (Gen 49:28) Each hold a sign (Num 2:2) Surrounding God's presence Blurring the lines (Heb 9:24) '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 (Heb 1:3) Pictures the Father Sorrounded by twelve (Mat 23:8) That he calls his brothers Twelve precious stones (Ex 39:7) Upon the Priests Ephod Twelve were the sons (Gen 35:22) The twelve sons of Jacob Twelve oxen held (2 Chr 4:4,5) In Solomon's temple Three thousand baths To cleanse all the Levites Christ built his church (Eph 2:20) Upon twelve apostles And three thousand souls (Acts 2:41) 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
