{last} Christmas Carol Spotlight: Go tell it on the Mountain

There were lots of contenders to be fit into my last day of this, and my considerations were all over the place - Joseph by the Killers, Le Noel de la Rue by Edith Piaf....
But I kept coming back to Go tell it on the Mountain.
Mostly, I think, because my entire 4th grade class learned to play it on the ukelele.  And if that isn't an awesome memory, I don't know what is.

And the version by the David Crowder Band makes me think about it in deep and mellow ways that are a perfect match for the breath I am taking before we dive into pure holiday bliss/stress/abandon.  Listen, breathe, dive.
