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
Down in a lowly manger,
the humble Christ was born,
and brought us God's salvation
that blessed Christmas morn.

Verse 2
When I was a seeker,
I sought both night and day;
I asked the Lord to help me,
and He showed me the way.

Verse 3
He made me a watchman
upon the city wall,
and if I am a Christian,
I am the least of all.

Verse 4

While shepherds kept their watching
o'er silent flocks by night,
behold, throughout the heavens
there shone a holy light.

Verse 5
And lo! When they had seen it,
they all bowed down and prayed;
They traveled on together
to where the Babe was laid.

Verse 6
The shepherds feared and trembled
when lo! Above the earth
rang out the angel chorus
that hailed our Savior's birth.

Verse 7
When I was a sinner,
I prayed both night and day;
I asked the Lord to help me,
and He showed me the way.
