That's right, y'all
[Chorus]
Dear children go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
Go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna send thee one by one
One for the little bitty, baby
Born of the Virgin Mary
And He was born, born, born in Bethlehem
And He was born, ooh born, born, born in Bethlehem
[Chorus]
Now children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
Go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?

Come on, children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
Go where I send thee, ooh Lord
