Vanessa Williams - Go Tell It On The Mountain / Mary Had A Baby Lyrics






Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Mary had a baby (oh Lord)
Mary had a baby (oh my Lord)
Mary had a baby (oh Lord)
People keep a coming and the train done gone

Laid him in a manger (oh Lord)
Laid him in a manger (oh my Lord)
Laid him in a manger, oh Lord
People keep a coming and the train done gone

Shepherds came to see him (oh Lord)
Shepherds came to see him (oh my Lord)
Shepherds came to see him, oh Lord)
People keep a coming and the train done gone

Named him King Jesus (oh Lord)
Named him King Jesus (oh my Lord)
Named him King Jesus, oh Lord
People keep a coming and the train done gone

When I was a seeker
I sought both night and day
And I asked the Lord to help me
And he showed me the way

Oh, go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

He made me a watchman
Up on the city wall
And if I am a Christian
I am the least of all

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hill and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hill and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain (tell it on the mountain)
That Jesus Christ is born

Go tell it on the mountain top
Over the hill and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hill and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

  43. S.... D....

    Go Vanessa Williams!!!

  44. D.... H....

    I love it when Vanessa Williams go on instead of the dancers.

  45. j.... ....

    is that PRECIOUS in the chorus?

  46. D.... H....

    @Danielle58282 Sorry I mean She looks the same NOW in 2010 not noe. Sorry

  47. D.... H....

    Vanessa Williams look basically the same noe in 2010. Wow. She is so pretty, No homo. I posted before i am a BIG fan and I mean that too.

  48. D.... H....

    I am a BIG Vanessa Williams fan. I wish I could meet her in person. No homo, but she is very pretty.

  49. D.... H....

    @OneHundredChords its a play

  50. t.... ....

    I've always like vanessa williams, and I must say at 4:39-4:43 I was impressed, I did not expect that from her!!

    t.... ....

    5:29-5:34 really great high notes

  51. l.... ....

    Yes it is, she's an actress and singer.

  52. O.... ....

    According to the CD liner notes for this track, the orchestra & choir were arranged by Jeremy Lubbock, and the
    choir on "Go Tell It on the Mountain" was arranged by Andrae Crouch.

    However, that doesn't mean that the people we see singing are the actual choir members. Maybe they are, but they could have just been extras who were hired to lip synch to the recording.

    This special was shot in Hollywood, I believe.

  53. j.... ....

    do you know who the choir is? and was this in NYC?

  54. O.... ....

    The dancers' names are Paula Brown & Darrel Wright. I don't know what dance company they came from.

  55. O.... ....

    Thanks for the compliment. I think you're the first person to notice where that splice is (or the first person to comment on it, anyway). It was fun finding ways to "expand" the video so that I could use the uncut audio.

  56. B.... ....

    she wasnt singin !!!

  57. O.... ....

    Are you Randy Waldman? Or a family member? I only ask because your profile says you are 29, but in his YouTube videos, Randy Waldman looks a bit older than that. Either way, thanks for posting.

  58. O.... ....

    The CD liner notes for this track read, "Acoustic Piano - Randy Waldman" and "Keyboards - David Foster." I didn't include every single musician in my notes because the credits would be a mile long. I only noted what Mr. Foster's contribution to each track was, since it was his album. But since you brought it up, I added Mr. Waldman to the list. :)

  59. s.... ....

    FUCK. she is so fierce.

  60. R.... B....

    Don't care when it was released, its just incredible! Mrs. Williams also is just too pretty!

  61. O.... ....

    Because Vanessa recorded this for David Foster's 1993 Christmas album. He gave her permission to include this track on her own Christmas album in 1996.

    O.... ....

    i LOVE her christmas album

  62. O.... ....

    You're welcome!

  63. s.... ....

    She is so awesome... I LOVE IT Thanks so much for uploading this

  64. O.... ....

    Good to know your mom raised you right. :)

  65. O.... ....

    Yep, doesn't she always? Must be that Miss America vibe.

  66. j.... ....

    i remeber this song! my mom must have had the tape!
