Go Tell It On The Mountain

I love this Christmas song.  You don't hear it too much.  If you don't know it click here and you'll go to  the site that plays the music. It is beautiful.

Go Tell It On The Mountain
  words: John W Work, Jr
  music:  african american spiritual  

Refrain

Go, tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain,
That Jesus Christ born.

While shepards kept their watching
Over the silent flocks by night
Behold throughout the heavens
There shone a holy light.

Refrain

The Shepherds feared and trembled,
When lo! above the earth,
Rang out the angels chorus
That hailed the Savior's birth.

Refrain

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

Refrain
