Children, go where I send thee.
How shall I send thee?
I'm gonna send thee by one;
One's for the little itty Baby,
Born, born Lord,
Born in Bethlehem.

Children, go where I send thee.
How shall I send thee?
I'm gonna send thee two by two, 'cause
Two was a Paul and Silas, and
One was the little itty Baby,
Born, born Lord
Born in Bethlehem

Children, go where I send thee.
How shall I send thee?
I'm gonna send thee three by three, 'cause
Three was the Hebrew children, and
Two was a Paul and Silas, and
One was the little itty Baby,
Born, born Lord,
Born, in Bethlehem.

Children, go where I send thee.
How shall I send thee?
I'm gonna send thee four by four, 'cause
Four was the poor came knockin' on the door, and
Three was the Hebrew children, and
Two was a Paul and Silas, and
One was the little itty Baby,
Born, born Lord,
Born, in Bethlehem.
