From the recording CHRISTMAS IS EVERY DAY (SMILE)
Lyrics
[Intro]
(Children Choir)
I've got to tell it; everywhere I go,
I've got to tell it so everyone will know.
(Repeat 2 times)
[Verse 1]
It was a silent night; as Shepherds watch their sheep,
The whole world sleeps, while the Heavens await a newborn King.
Heaven's hosts watched the way as Mary and Joseph rest and lay,
Then joy came to the world in a humble way...
[Chorus]
(Children Choir)
Go tell it on the mountain; over the hills and everywhere;
Go tell it on the mountain that; Jesus Christ is born.
[Chorus]
I've got to tell it; everywhere I go,
I've got to tell it so everyone will know.
(Repeat 2 times)
[TENORS]
I've got to tell everybody; Go, go, go!
(Repeat 2 times)
[ALTOS]
Go, tell it; Go tell it; Go tell it!
(Repeat 4 times)
[SOPRANOS]
Jesus is born! (Repeat 4 times)
[Verse 2]
In the fields where the angels sang, the sound echoed wide,
Announcing the news, with joy they proclaimed with pride.
The stars shone bright, lighting up the night sky,
Hope was reborn, and the world was lifted high.
[Chorus]
(Children Choir)
Go tell it on the mountain; over the hills and everywhere;
Go tell it on the mountain that; Jesus Christ is born.
[Chorus]
I've got to tell it; everywhere I go,
I've got to tell it so everyone will know.
(Repeat 2 times)
[TENORS]
I've got to tell everybody; Go, go, go!
(Repeat 2 times)
[ALTOS]
Go, tell it; Go tell it; Go tell it!
(Repeat 4 times)
[SOPRANOS]
Jesus is born! (Repeat 4 times)
[Bridge]
In every heart, a flame ignites, spreading light and love,
Gathering all the joy, from the heavens above.
Children singing, voices soaring, making spirits bright,
Let's share this wonderful story, bringing hope to the night.
[Chorus]
(Children Choir)
Go tell it on the mountain; over the hills and everywhere;
Go tell it on the mountain that; Jesus Christ is born.
[Outro]
I've got to tell it; everywhere I go,
I've got to tell it so everyone will know.
(Repeat 2 times)
(TENORS, ALTOS, SOPRANOS, Children Choir overlap joyfully)
Jesus is born! Go tell it now!
Go tell it on the mountain!
Jesus Christ is born!
