Go Tell it on the Mountain

 

[Verse 1]
C                           G                  C
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere;
C                                G7             C
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

[Verse 2]
      C                                  G                C
While shepherds kept their watching o'er silent flocks by night,
                                    D            G7
Behold throughout the heavens there shone a Holy Light.

[Chorus]
C                           G                  C
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere;
C                                G7             C
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

[Verse 3]
    C                                   G            C
The shepherds feared and trembled when lo! Above the earth,
                               D                    G7
Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Saviour's birth.

[Chorus]
C                           G                  C
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere;
C                                G7             C
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

[Verse 4]
     C                     G                 C
Down in a lowly manger the humble Christ was born
                                    D                 G7
And brought us God's salvation that blessed Christmas morn!

[Chorus]
C                           G                  C
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere;
C                                G7             C
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.
