Children go, where I send thee,
How shall I send thee?
I’m going to send thee one by one,
One for the little bitty baby was born, born, born in Bethlehem.
Children go, where I send thee,
How shall I send thee?
I’m going to send thee 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 thee,
How shall I send thee?
I’m going to send thee 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 thee,
How shall I send thee?
I’m going to send thee four by four.
Four for the four that stood at the door
Three for the Hebrew children,
Two for Paul and Silas,
One for the little bitty baby was born, born, born in Bethlehem.
