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 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.
Jesus Christ is born.
Down in a lowly manger
Our humble Christ was born
And God sent 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.
Jesus Christ is born.
Jesus Christ is born.
