Stanley Brothers - Children Go Where I Send Thee Lyrics

Children go where I send Thee (Oh lordy)

How will I send thee

Oh I'm gonna send thee one by one



For one was a little bitty baby born,

Children born in Bethlehem



Two was Paul and Silas

Three was the Hebrew children

Four was the four that stood at the door

Five was the five that came back alive

Six was the six that didn't get picked

Seven was the seven that never got to heaven

Eight was the eight that waited at the gate

Nine was the nine that stood in the line

Ten for the ten commandments
