The song is considered a Christmas carol, as its original lyrics celebrate 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.

"Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus" has been set to a number of tunes. It is not known which tune Wesley originally intended for the hymn [clarification needed], hence why it was excluded from the "Wesleyan Hymn Book", [11] but it is likely that the first tune it was set to was "Stuttgart" by Christian Friedrich Witt which had been written in 1716.
The tune, originally a Silesian folk song, and the German text were printed together for the first time in 1842 by Hoffmann von Fallersleben and Richter under the name Schönster Herr Jesu (Most beautiful Lord Jesus). [4] [5] In 1850 the Danish hymnwriter B. S. Ingemann wrote Dejlig er jorden, which he set to the same melody. [6]
