When I was a seeker I sought both night and day I asked the Lord to help me And He showed me the way Go tell it on the mountain O'er the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born He made me a watchman Upon the city walls And if I am a Christian I am the least of all Go tell it on the mountain O'er the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born While shepherds kept their watching Oh wandering flock by night Behold throughout the Heavens There shone a holy light Go tell it on the mountain O'er the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born 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 O'er the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born That Jesus Christ is born That Jesus Christ is born
