Go tell it on the mountain

Over the hills and ev'rywhere

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 shown a holy light.

Go tell it on the mountain

Over the hills and ev'rywhere

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 the Savior's birth.

Go tell it on the mountain

Over the hills and ev'rywhere

Go tell it on the mountain

That Jesus Christ is born

Down in a lowly manger

the humble Christ was born,

and God sent us salvation

that blessed Christmas morn.

Go tell it on the mountain

Over the hills and ev'rywhere

Go tell it on the mountain

That Jesus Christ is born
