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 keep their watching O’er silent flocks by night, Behold thro out 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 our 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 a lowly manger the humble Christ was born And brought us God’s 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, Over the hills and everywhere Go tell it on the mountain That Jesus Christ is born That Jesus Christ is born That Jesus Christ is born

Tho’ an infant now we view Him, He will share His Father’s throne Gather all the nations to Him Every knee shall then bow down

Come and worship, Come and Worship; Worship Christ, the newborn King Open Door Bible Church CCLI

While You Were Sleeping

Oh little town of Bethlehelm, Looks like another silent night Above your deep and dreamless sleep, a giant star lights up the sky And while you’re lying in the dark, there shines an everlasting light For the King has left His throne, and is sleeping in a manager tonight

Oh Bethlehem, what you have missed while you were sleeping For God became a man And stepped into your world today Oh Bethlehem, you will go down in history As a city with no room for its King While you were sleeping, While you were sleeping

O little town of Jerusalem Looks like another silent night The Father gave His only Son, The Way, the Truth, the Life had come But there was no room for Him in the world He came to save

Jerusalem, what you have missed While you were sleeping The Savior of the world is dying on your cross today Jerusalem, you will go down in history As a city with no room for its king While you were sleeping

United States of America looks like another silent night As we’re sung to sleep by philosophies That save the trees and kill the children and while we’re lying in the dark There’s a shout heard ‘cross the eastern sky For the Bridegroom has returned and has carried His bride away in the night

America, what will we miss while we are sleeping Will Jesus come again And leave us slumbering where we lay America, will we go down in history As a nation with no room for its King Will we be sleeping Will we be sleeping

United States of America Looks like another silent night ODBC CCLI#153970
