The title of this carol is a call to all of us who love Him: “Go Tell it on the Mountain,” written by John J. Work.

1 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 ev’rywhere;
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.

2 The shepherds feared and trembled
When high above the earth
Rang out the angel chorus
That hailed our Savior’s birth.

Refrain:
Go, tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and ev’rywhere;
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.

3 And lo, when they had heard it,
They all bowed down and prayed;
They traveled on together
To where the Babe was laid.

Refrain:
Go, tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and ev’rywhere;
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.

4 Down in a lowly manger
The humble Christ was born,
And God sent us salvation
That blessed Christmas morn.

Refrain:
Go, tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and ev’rywhere;
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born.
