Verse 1

While shepherds kept
Their watching
Over silent flocks by night
Behold throughout
The heavens
There shone a holy light

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

In a lowly manger
Our humble Christ was born
And God sent 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

Turnaround

Go tell it on the mountain

Chorus

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

Turnaround

Go tell it on the mountain
