Children, go where I send thee
Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?

Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?

Well, I'm gonna send them one by one
One for the little bitty baby

He was born, born
He was born in Bethlehem

Children, go where I send thee
How should I send thee?
Well, I'm gonna send them two by two
Two for Paul and Silas
One for the little bitty baby

He was born, born
He was born in Bethlehem

Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?

Well, I'm gonna send them three by three
Three for the Hebrew children

One for the little bitty baby

He was born, born
He was born in Bethlehem

Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?

Well, I'm gonna send them six by six
Six for the six who never got fixed
Five for the gospel preachers

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

He was born, born
Whoa, He was born in Bethlehem

Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?

And I'm gonna send them eight by eight
Eight for the eight who stood at the gate
Seven for the seven who never got to heaven
And six for the six that never got fixed

Five for the gospel preachers
Four for the four who stood at the door
Three for the Hebrew children
Two for Paul and Silas
One for the little bitty baby

He was born, born
Baby, He was born in Bethlehem

Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?

And baby, I'm gonna send them ten by ten
Ten for the Ten Commandments
And nine for the nine who dressed so fine

Eight for the eight who stood at the gate
And seven for the seven who never got to heaven
And six for the six who never got fixed
Five for the gospel preachers

Four for the four that stood at the door
Three for the Hebrew children
Two for Paul and Silas
And one for the little bitty baby

He was born, born
Yeah, yeah, He was born in Bethlehem
He was born in Bethlehem

Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
Children, go where I send thee
Tell me, how should I send thee? Oh yeah
Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?

Children, go where I send thee
Children, go where I send thee
Children, go where I send thee
Children, go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?

Take the children
Children, go where I send thee
