105. Go Tell It On The Mountain

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

1 While shepherds kept their watching
O'er silent flocks by night,
Behold throughout the heavens
There shone a holy light. [Refrain]

2 'Twas in a humble manger
That Jesus Christ was born;
The God of all creation
Became a child that morn. [Refrain]

3 He came to die for sinners,
To take away our sin;
That we may know salvation,
And be complete in Him. [Refrain]
