While shepherds kept their watching Over silent flocks by night Behold throughout the heavens There shone a holy light Go tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere 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 That hailed the Savior's birth Go tell it on the mountain Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born Go tell it, over the hills, over the hills and everywhere Go tell it, over the mountain tops Go tell it, over the hills, over the hills and everywhere Go tell it, over the mountain tops that 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 everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born Go tell it on the mountain, yea Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born That He's born go tell it That He's born go tell it
