Children, go where I send thee
  How shall I send thee?
  I'm gonna send thee one by one
  One for the little bitty baby
  That was born, born
  Born in Bethlehem.
  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 baybe
  That was born, born
  Born in Bethlehem.
  Three for the Hebrew children...
  Four for the four that stood at the door...
  Five for the gospel preachers...
  Six for the six that never got fixed...
  Seven for the seven that never got to heaven...
  Eight for the eight that stood at the gate...
  Nine for the nine all dressed so fine...
  Ten for the ten commandments...
  Eleven for the eleven deriders...
  Twelve for the twelve Apostles
