Liedtext
1. Strophe
While shepherds kept their watching
o'er silent flocks by night,
behold, throughout the heavens
there shone a holy light.
Refrain
Go, tell it on the mountain,
over the hills and everywhere;
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
2. Strophe
The shepherds feared and trembled,
when low above the earth,
rang out the angels chorus
that hailed our Savior's birth.
Refrain
Go, tell it on the mountain,
over the hills and everywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
3. Strophe
And lo! When they had heard it,
they all bowed down to pray,
then travelled on together,
to where the Baby lay.
Refrain
Go, tell it on the mountain,
over the hills and everywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
4. Strophe
Down in a lowly manger
that Jesus Christ was born.
The Lord sent down an angel
that bright and glorious morn.
Refrain
Go, tell it on the mountain,
over the hills and everywhere,
go, tell it on the mountain,
that Jesus Christ is born.
