Verse 1

While shepherds kept their watching
O'er silent flocks by night
Behold throughout the heavens
There shone a Holy light

Chorus

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Verse 2

The shepherds feared and trembled
When lo Above the Earth
Rang out the angel chorus
That hailed our Savior's birth

Chorus

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Verse 3

Down in a lowly manger
Our humble Christ was born
And God send us salvation
That blessed Christmas morn

Chorus

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
