Go tell it on the mountain Go tell it on the mountain,...

Go tell it on the mountain

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 o'er silent flocks at night,
Behold, throughout the heavens there shone a holy light.
Go tell it on the mountain...

The shepherds feared and trembled when high above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Saviour's birth.
Go tell it on the mountain...

And lo, when they had heard it they all bowed down and prayed.
They traveled on together to where the Babe was laid.
Go tell it on the mountain...

Down in a lowly manger the humble Christ was born,
And God sent us salvation that blessed Christmas morn.
Go tell it on the mountain...

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 mountain...

When I was a seeker, I sought both night and day.
I asked my Lord to help me, and he taught me to pray.
Go tell it on the mountain...

The Lord 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 mountain...
