►LYRICS - Go Tell It on the Mountain
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
While shepherds kept their watchin'
O'er silent flocks by night
Behold throughout the heavens
There shone a holy light
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 angel chorus
That hailed the Savior's birth
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
Down in the lowly manger
The humble Christ was born
And God sent us salvation
That blessed Christmas morn
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
(Go tell it on the mountain)
Tell it on the mountain
(Over the hills and everywhere)
Everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Look at that impressive Momma in the back just go in on that upright Bass! The whole team is excellent !

[@General_Hurricane]

Fun fact: my dog is sincerely comforted by your guys music. Whenever my family leaves we always play it for him and he calms down

[@garyrichards9569]

A trait that the Petersens always exhibit is sincere enthusiasm for what they are doing. We need more of that today.

[@oliver7763]

Yes, we need more empathy and respect in the world.

[@dartgiangg597]

Indeed, we need such a positive feeling

That lick at 1:26 on the dobro, that's as smooth and tasty as a perfect Christmas cake.

Ha, that's one way to say it! I was thinking ~ "gnarly like an ancient tree on a windy bluff" XD so good! edit: just followed the timestamp, I was thinking of the solo at 1:42

I will always remember Peter, Paul & Mary singing this amazing song. But The Petersens do very well, I am a new fan.

[@imtherealone.6268]

Even in this one, Julianne and Katie's harmonies are really great. You guys did amazing job with the Christmas album.

[@Allen2]

This is it: the definitive bluegrass harmony version of Go Tell It On The Mountain. I've loved Sara Evans' country-pop version for many years, and now the Petersens LIVE version, featuring Ellen's strong vocals, and solo breaks from each of banjo, fiddle, and dobro, plus a bass feature, have made a modern classic for many years' enjoyment to come. Ellen really takes us to church on that last chorus, with the siblings keeping mighty fine harmony Your fan, Allen.

[@kennrothman205]

2 months later and back to enjoy this again!!!

One of my favorite Christmas songs. I think I first heard this song, many years ago, from a little boy, singing A cappella, in a episode of Little House on the Prairie.

[@lippdog03]

Most underrated player: Dad who worked his butt off to pay for all of those music lessons!

[@ThePalmerFamilyBackyardGarden]

Mom might deserve some of the credit for the music lessons, too. If I remember correctly, her major at university was in music.

[@stevenwagner9205]

This is going to be added to our Christmas morning list along with the Annie Moses Band version! I love listening to this sweet music while my little girl opens her presents and we indulge in a special french toast breakfast with real maple syrup every year!
