Lyrics

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 angel chorus
That hailed our saviour'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
Our humble christ was born
And god send us salvation
That blessed christmas morn:
Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere;
Go, tell it on the mountain
That jesus christ is born

When I am a seeker
I seek both night and day;
I seek the lord to help me
And he shows me the way:
Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere;
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 mountain
Over the hills and everywhere;
Go, tell it on the mountain
That jesus christ is born
