Children Go Where I Send You
Children go where I send you,
How shall I send you?
I'm gonna send you one by one,
One for the little bitty baby was born, born, born in Bethlehem.
Children go where I send you,
How shall I send you?
I'm gonna send you two by two,
Two for Paul and Silas,
One for the little bitty baby was born, born, born in Bethlehem.
Children go where I send you,
How shall I send you?
I'm gonna send you three by three,
Three for the Hebrew children,
Two for Paul and Silas,
One for the little bitty baby was born, born, born in Bethlehem.
Children go where I send you,
How shall I send you?
I'm gonna send you four by four,
Four for the four that stood at the door,
Three etc.
Five for the five that came back alive
Six for the six that couldn't get a fix
Seven for the seven that went up to heaven
Eight for the eight that stood at the gate
