Go tell it on the mountain
Go, tell it on the mountains,
over the hills and ev´rywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
When I was a sinner,
I prayed both night and day,
I asked the Lord to help me,
and He showed me the way.
Go, tell it on the mountains,
over the hills and ev´rywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
It was in a lowly manger
that Jesus Christ was born;
the Lord send down an angel
that bright an’ glorious morn.
Go, tell it on the mountains,
over the hills and ev´rywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
He made me a watchman
upon the city wall,
and if I am a christian,
I am the least of all.
Go, tell it on the mountains,
over the hills and ev´rywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
While shepherds kept their watching
O’er silent flocks by night,
Behold throughout the heavens,
There shone a holy light.
Go, tell it on the mountains,
over the hills and ev´rywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
