Children, Go Where I Send Thee 歌詞
Children, Go Where I Send Thee - Odetta
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
Wrapped in swaddling clothes
And laying in a manger
And he was born born
Born in Bethlehem
Now children go where I send thee
How shall I send thee
I'm gonna send thee two by two
He was born of the virgin Mary
One was a little bitty baby
Wrapped in swaddling clothes
And laying in a manger
Born in Bethlehem
Then go where I send thee
How shall I send thee
I'm gonna send thee three by three
Three was the Hebrew children
Two was Paul and Silas
One is the little bitty baby
Born of the virgin Mary
And laying in a manger
And he was born born
Born in Bethlehem
Go where I send thee
How shall I send thee
I'm gonna send thee four by four
Well I was the four that stood at the door
Three was the Hebrew children
Two was Paul and Silas
One is the little bitty baby
Born of the virgin Mary
Wrapped in swaddling clothes
And laying in a manger
And he was born born born in Bethlehem
Oh children go where I send thee
How shall I send thee
Yeh I'm gonna send thee five by five
Five was the gospel rider
Four was the four that stood at the door
