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 watching
Over 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 angels 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 a 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.

Written by Kirk Franklin

CHORUS
Silver and gold
Silver and gold
I'd rather have Jesus
Than silver and gold
No fame or fortune
Nor riches untold
I'd rather have Jesus
Than silver and gold

Don't give me a mansion
On top of a hill
Don't give me the world
With a shallow thrill
But just give me a Savior
My life He can hold
I'd rather have Jesus
Than silver and gold

CHORUS

I woke up this morning
Feeling kind of down
I called on my best friend
She could not be found
But I called on Jesus
My life He can hold
I'd rather have Jesus
Than silver and gold
