Go, tell it on the mountain – Text
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 angels’ chorus
that hailed the Saviour’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.
And lo! When they had heard it,
they all bowed down to pray,
then travelled on together,
to where the Baby lay.
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.
I too am like a shepherd,
my flock of days to guard,
each day finds time for praying,
from this I won’t retard.
Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and ev’rywhere;
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.
