Go, tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go, tell it on the mountain That jesus christ is born While shepherds kept their watching Over silent flocks by night Behold throughout the heavens There shone a holy light Go, tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go, tell it on the mountain That jesus christ is born The shepherds feared and trembled When lo! above the earth Rang out the angels chorus That hailed the savior's birth Go, tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go, tell it on the mountain That jesus christ is born Down in a lowly manger The humble christ was born And god sent us salvation That blessá¨d christmas morn' Go, tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go, tell it on the mountain That jesus christ is born.
