Go Tell it on the Mountain

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 ev’rywhere; Go tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is born. While shepherds kept their watching; O’er silent flock by night; Behold from out the heavens, There shone 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. And lo, when they had seen it, They all bowed down and prayed, They travel’d on together To where the babe was laid: Go tell it on the mountain, Over the hills and ev’rywhere, 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 ev’rywhere, You’ve gotta go, tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born. Go tell it on the mountain; Over the hills and ev’rywhere; Go tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is born.
