While shepherds kept their watching
O’er silent flocks by night,
Behold, throughout the heavens
There shone a holy light
Chorus
Go, tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain,
That Jesus Christ is born.
The shepherds feared and trembled,
When lo! Above the earth,
Rang out the angels chorus
That hailed our Savior's birth.
Down in a lowly manger
The humble Christ was born
And God sent us salvation
That blessed Christmas morn.
Chorus
I was a lonely seeker
I sought both night and day
When I asked the Lord to help me
He showed me the way
He made me a watchman
Upon a city wall
And if I am a Christian
I am the least of all
