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
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
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
Go, tell it On the Mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it On the Mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
He is born
He is born
Go, tell it On the Mountain
