CHILDREN GO WHERE I SEND THEE
Go where I send thee
How shall I send thee
I'm gonna send you eight by eight
Eight for the eight that stood at the gate
Seven for the seven that couldn't get to heaven
Six for the six that couldn't get fixed
Five for the gospel preachers
Four for the four that stood at the door
Three for the hebrew children
Two for Paul and Silas
One for the little bitty - baby
Born of the virgin Mary
Born, born, born in Bethlehem Children
Born, born, born in Bethlehem

North Coordinates
The hebrew children stood at the door of the virgin Mary. They stood at the door but couldn’t get to heaven because the virgin Mary needed to speak to the gospel preachers.
West Coordinates
The little bitty – baby born of the virgin Mary couldn’t get to heaven either. So the virgin Mary stood at the gate. She couldn’t get to heaven because the Hebrew children who stood at the door lost the key.
