GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN
THAT JESUS CHRIST IS BORN
GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN
THAT JESUS CHRIST IS BORN
HEAVEN STOOPED DOWN
TO KISS THE EARTH THAT MORN.
Well, shepherds were watchin’ their flocks in the silent night
Watchin’ their flocks in the dark of the silent night
The sky blazed out with a beautiful holy light.
They were shakin’ their shoes as the angels started to sing
Singin’ the blues til the angels started to sing
They ran to the stable to worship Mary’s boy
Rushed to the stable to see her pride and joy
God came down as a helpless baby boy.
