     13 And he goeth up into a mountain, and calleth unto him whom he would: and they came unto him. 14 And he ordained twelve, that they should be with him, and that he might send them forth to preach, 15 And to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils: 16 And Simon he surnamed Peter; 17 And James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James; and he surnamed them Boanerges, which is, The sons of thunder: 18 And Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite, 19 And Judas Iscariot, which also betrayed him: and they went into an house.(KJV)

1. Art thou weary, art thou troubled, 
Art thou sore distressed? 
“Come to Me,” saith One, “and, coming, 
Be at rest.” 

2. Hath He marks to lead me to Him 
If He be my Guide? 
“In His feet and hands are wound-prints, 
And His side.” 

3. Hath He diadem, as Monarch, 
That His brow adorns? 
“Yea, a crown, in very surety, 
But of thorns.” 

4. If I find Him, if I follow, 
What His guerdon here? 
“Many a sorrow, many a labor, 
Many a tear.” 

5. If I still hold closely to Him, 
What hath He at last? 
“Sorrow vanquished, labor ended, 
Jordan passed.” 

6. If I ask Him to receive me, 
Will He say me nay? 
“Not till earth and not till heaven 
Pass away.” 

7. Finding, following, keeping, struggling, 
Is He sure to bless? 
“Saints, apostles, prophets, martyrs, 
Answer, Yes.”
