edward.hubbell@mts.com Origins: Go Tell It on the Mountain (35) Go tell it on the Mountain 17 Jan 98


I swear when I first heard 'Go tell it on the Mountain', (when I learned it in music class in the 2nd grade) it had a verse that went something like -
    When I was a poor boy,
    I cried both night and day.
    I asked the Lord to help me,
    And he showed me the way.
As I recall, it was more of a spiritual than the Christmas version that is version #1 here. Maybe I'm just making that verse up in my head, but if anyone has any alternative verses to GTIOTM, I would appreciate hearing them. - Ed
