Jewel - Medley lyrics

a) Go Tell It On the Mountain

when I was a seeker

I sought both night and day

I asked the lord to help me

and he showed me the way

go tell it on the mountain

over the hills and ev'rywhere

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 hills and ev'rywhere

go tell it on the mountain

that Jesus Christ is born

while shepherds kept their watching

o'er wand'ring flock by night

behold! from out of the heavens

there shown a holy light

go tell it on the mountain

over the hills and ev'rywhere

go tell it on the mountain

that Jesus Christ is born

go tell it on the mountain

over the hills and ev'rywhere

go tell it on the mountain

that Jesus Christ is born

b) From a Distance

God is watching us, God is watching us

God is watching us from a distance

God is watching us, God is watching us

God is watching us ¡­

(from a distance)

c) Life Uncommon

I've heard your anguish

oh! I've heard your hearts cry out

we're tired, oh! we are weary

oh! we aren't worn out

set down your chains

'til only faith remains

set down your chains

and lend your voices

only to sounds of freedom

oh, no longer lend your strength to that

which you wish to be free from

fill your lives with love and brav'ry

and we shall lead a life uncommon

there are plenty of people

who pray for peace

but if praying were enough

oh! it would have come to be

don't ever let your words enslave no one

and the heavens will hush themselves

to hear our voices ring out clear

with sounds of freedom

sounds of freedom

come on you unbelievers

oh! move out of the way

there is a new army coming

oh! and we are armed with faith

oh! live, oh! we must give

oh! live

and lend our voices only to sounds of freedom

no longer lend your strength

to that which you wish to be free from

fill your lives with love and brav'ry

and we shall lead

a life uncommon

fill your lives with love and brav'ry

oh! and we shall lead

a life uncommon

(From a Distance again)

god is watching us, god is watching us,

god is watching us from a distance

god is watching us, god is watching us,

god is watching us from a distance
