Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Children 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 bitty baby
Wrapped in swaddling clothing
He was born (Born), born
Born in Bethlehem
[Verse 2]
Children go where I send thee
How shall I send thee?
I'm gonna send thee two by two
Two for Paul and Silas
Three for the little bitty baby
Four for the Hebrew children
Five for the Gospel preacher
Born (Born), oh (Born)
(Born in) Born in Bethlehem
[Verse 3]
Yeah, children go where I send thee (Where I send thee)
How shall I send thee? (How shall I send thee?)
Hey now, I'm gonna send thee two by two (Okay)
Three for Paul and Silas
Four for the four that stood by the door

Children go where I send thee (Where I send thee)
Go where I send thee
