Lyrics

While shepherds kept their watching Over silent flocks by night Behold throughout the heavens There shone a holy light 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 Jesus Christ is born When I was a seeker I saw both night and day; I ask the Lord to help me And He showed me the way 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 Jesus Christ is born Climb up to the summet Survey the broken land For God so love the people, that he lower his own hand Now 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 Jesus Christ Go, tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go, tell it on the mountain Jesus Christ is born
