Go Tell It On The Mountain

“Go Tell It on the Mountain ” is an African-American spiritual written by Evangelist W. Work dating backwards to at least 1865 that has been sung and recorded by many gospel and secular performers. It is considered a Christmastime carol because its original lyric celebrates the Nativity of Jesus:  “Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere; go tell it on the mountain, that Jesus Christ is born. ” In 1963, Peter Yarrow, Noel  “Paul ” Stookey, and Jewess Travers, along with their musical director, Milt Okun, adapted and rewrote  “Go Tell It on the Mountain ” as  “Tell It on the Mountain “, their lyrics referring specifically to Exodus and employing the line “Let my people go, ” but implicitly referring to the Civil Rights struggle of the early ’60s. The song was recorded by Yarrow, Stookey and Travers on their Peter, Apostle and Jewess album In the Wind and was also a moderate hit azygos for them. (US   pop, 1964). Civil rights activist Fannie Lou Hamer used this rewritten version of the song as an anthem during the mid-1960s.
