(Chorus)
Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills
and everywhere;
Go tell it on the mountain,
That Jesus Christ is born.
Verse 1
While shepherds kept
their watching,
O'er wandering flocks by night;
Behold from out of heavens,
There shone a holy light.
Verse 2
And lo, when they had seen it,
They all bowed down
and prayed;
They travelled on together
To where the Babe was laid.
Verse 3
The shepherds feared
and trembled,
When lo above the earth;
Rang out the angel chorus,
That hailed our Savior's birth.
Verse 4
Down in a lowly manger,
The humble Christ was born;
And brought us
God's salvation,
That blessed Christmas morn.
