While shepherds kept their watching
O'er 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
This Jesus Christ is born
Down in a lowly manger
The humble Christ was born;
And God sent out salvation
That blessed Christmas morn
Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Mother Christ is born
Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Mother Christ is born
This Jesus Christ is born,
Christ is born!
