Go Tell it on the Mountain

 

[Verse 1]
E                           B                  E
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere;
E                                B7             E
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

[Verse 2]
      E                                  B                E
While shepherds kept their watching o'er silent flocks by night,
                                    F#            B7
Behold throughout the heavens there shone a Holy Light.

[Chorus]
E                           B                  E
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere;
E                                B7             E
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

[Verse 3]
    E                                   B            E
The shepherds feared and trembled when lo! Above the earth,
                               F#                    B7
Rang out the angel chorus that hailed our Saviour's birth.

[Chorus]
E                           B                  E
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere;
E                                B7             E
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.

[Verse 4]
     E                     B                 E
Down in a lowly manger the humble Christ was born
                                    F#                 B7
And brought us God's salvation that blessed Christmas morn!

[Chorus]
E                           B                  E
Go tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere;
E                                B7             E
Go tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born.
