Children, go where I send thee

How shall I send thee?

I'm gonna send thee one by one

One for the little bitty baby

That was born, born

Born in Bethlehem.

Children, go where I send thee

How shall I send thee?

I'm gonna send thee two by two

Two for Paul and Silas

One for the little bitty baybe

That was born, born

Born in Bethlehem.

Three for the Hebrew children...

Four for the four that stood at the door...

Five for the gospel preachers...

Six for the six that never got fixed...

Seven for the seven that never got to heaven...

Eight for the eight that stood at the gate...

Nine for the nine all dressed so fine...

Ten for the ten commandments...

Eleven for the eleven deriders...

Twelve for the twelve Apostles...
