If I were a disciple I’d be fishin’ with Peter and John.
Floatin’ on the Sea of Galilee, I’d stay there all day long.
Til Jesus came and called to me,
“Hey there skipper won’t you follow me.”
If I were a disciple I’d be fishin’ with Peter and John.

Chorus:

    I’d be fishin’ with Simon Peter,
    The Sons of Thunder James and John.
    I’d know doubting Thomas
    And a tax collector named Matthew,
    A tax collector named Matthew!
    Another Simon and another James,
    And Judas there’d be two.
    I’d know Phillip and Andrew.
    And I can’t forget Bartholomew.
    What a name Bartholomew!

If I were a disciple I’d follow Jesus all day.
I’d learn all the Bible stories,
And memorize the words he’d say.
‘Cause I was lost but now I’m found.
Yeah, Jesus showed me how to get around.
If I were a disciple I’d follow Jesus all day.

If I were a disciple I’d share God’s love with you.
I’d tell you all about Jesus and be a friend so true.
I would stay right by your side,
Every morning and noon and night.
If I were a disciple I’d share God’s love with you.
