Children Go Where I Send Thee

Children go where i send thee
How shall I send thee?
Oh, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
I’m gonna send thee one by one
One for the little biddy baby
Born, born, born in Bethlehem

Children go where i send thee
How shall I send thee?
Oh, 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 biddy baby
Born, born, born in Bethlehem

Children go where i send thee
How shall I send thee?
Oh, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
I’m gonna send thee three by three
Three for the Hebrew children
Two for Paul and Silas
One for the little biddy baby
He was born, born in Bethlehem

Children go where i send thee
How shall I send thee?
Oh, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
I’m gonna send thee four by four
Four for the four who sit at the door
Three for the Hebrew children
Two for Paul and Silas
One for the little biddy baby
He was born, born in Bethlehem

Children go where i send thee
How shall I send thee?
Oh, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
Five for the gospel preacher
Four for the four who sit at the door
Three for the Hebrew children
Two for Paul and Silas
One for the little biddy baby
He was born, born in Bethlehem

Children go—children go
Ten for the Ten Commandments
Nine for the nine who look so fine
Eight for the eight who stood at the gate
Seven for the seven who went to Heaven
Five for the gospel preacher
Four for the four who stood at the door
Three for the Hebrew children
Two for Paul and Silas
One for the little biddy baby
Born, born, born in Bethlehem
Born, born, born in Bethlehem
He was born, born in Bethlehem

Well he was born, yes he was born
Well he was born in Bethlehem
