As a child growing up a military brat , my sister and I learned this song in this version, but can’t remember when and where we first learned it. We sung it everywhere no matter the season. I even elbowed my sis so I could sing the solo part, I know not very Christian to hit a sister , but we still have a mystery. Has anyone ever heard this version and if so where. I have checked the Internet and no luck. My kids know the original and the version I have sung for so long.

If you have never heard this version could you also tell me? If you never heard of it and like it let me know?

(Choirs)
Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and every where,
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

(Solo)
When I was a sinner,
It was he, who led the way,
He led my heart to follow,
He led my heart to say....

(Choirs)
Come on; let’s go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and every where
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born,

Repeat allot.

I just bought a Christmas cd pack with that song on it, when I was little, they would sing it in church. I also like "Go Rest High on That Mountain", I know that Vince Gill sings a version of that one.
Baldwin uses this creation-birth-rebirth image throughout the novel: The novel opens in March, the beginning of spring, associated with new life and birth. It is John’s 14th birthday, “birthday” itself suggesting some significance in this regard and the special significance of the 14th birthday connoting puberty, that is, the end of childhood and the beginning of adulthood. Elizabeth, John’s mother, is pregnant. The home and church pressure “unit[e] to drive [John] to the alter,” that is, drive him to “being saved” or “born again.” Perhaps most significantly, the image can be seen in the symbolic new beginning that virtually every adult character in the novel seeks in moving from the oppression of the South in search of something better in the North. The image appears even in the title of the novel; the “It” in Go Tell It on the Mountain is “Jesus Christ is born.”

I hope this helps with your question.
The following websites will give you more detail about the song.

Yes, I have heard this song, but I learned it when I was in Sunday school.
