[BUTTERFLYOFLUNA]

Now that's what I call music! Nope, they don't make 'em like that anymore!

Love this song.... i used to sing this in church all the time with the pastors son! Such a great one! Took forever to find a version like we sung and low and behold.... i found it!! Thanks for posting!

OMG, this is the closest I've gotten to find the version my grandmother sings (old black gospel hymn). I love this beat better than the others thus far, but her version is even better. first verse:

Children go where i send thee

How shall I send thee

I'm gonna send thee 1 by

1 was the itty bitty baby,

born by the virgin of Mary,

wrapped in a swaddlin' clothin',

laid in a heavenly manger,

baby born, born in bethlehem.

my search continues...

We sang this song in elementary school. We didn't sing it anywhere near this. I'm pretty sure I would've preferred this version over ours. Great job!

I've heard versions of this son that are unrecognizable but this group did a good job of doing a country rendition while keeping the original tempo and melody of the original traditional African American spiritual.

Went to my granddaughters Christmas program this week (she's in kindergarten) & the 3rd graders sang this...too cute they were. Love this song. This is a nice version.  I also like Natalie Merchant's version. Thanks for sharing!

Very nice song. My high school is doing a different, more boring, arrangement of this song.

I prefer this one a lot more. I may have to talk some guys into doing this.

[purplespretty]

same here!!!

haha...but it still sounds pretty good...our choirs pretty good =]]

[hwasunni]

i sang this in my hs chorus but i liked the arrangement we did better. this is a little too country for me.

[oceanclub05]

I had this spiritual on a 78 in the early 50's.

It was called 'Little Bitty Baby' then and sung by the fabulous Golden Gate Quartet.

Brilliant! Got worn out through so much playing.
