While shepherds kept their watching
over Wandering 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 sent us salvation,

That blessed Christmas morn:

Over the hills and everywhere;

Go, Tell It On The Mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.


When I was a seeker,
I sought both night and day;
I asked the Lord to help me,

And He showed 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.
