Go Tell It On The Mountain

from Sandcastles by Elijah Russ

/

lyrics

Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.

Who's that yonder dressed in red,
Sets my people free?
Who's there yonder dressed in red,
Sets my people free?
I'm beggin'

Who's that yonder dressed in red?
Must be the children that Moses led.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.

Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.

Who's there yonder dressed, dressed in white,
Sets my people free?
Who's there yonder, full dressed in white,
Sets my people free?

I'm beggin'
Who's there yonder dressed in white?
Must be the children of the Israelites.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.

Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.

Who’s there yonder dressed in blue?
Set my people free
Who’s there yonder dressed in blue?
Set my people free

Who’s there yonder dressed in blue?
Beating the black off my brothers too?
Go tell it on the mountain
To set my people free.

Go tell it on the mountain,
Over the hills and everywhere.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.
Go tell it on the mountain,
To set my people free.
