( From the album "A Very Happy Christmas" )      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 swadling clothing,   Lying in a manger.   He 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 baby.   Wrapped in swadling clothing,   and lying in a manger.   He was born, born   Born in Bethlehem.   Three for the Hebrew children...   Four for the four knockin' at my 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...
