Go Tell It On The Mountain

Songwriter/Composer/Translator John Wesley Work, Jr

D           
Go, tell it on the mountain
A                  D   A   G  D
Over the hills and eve-ry--where
Go, tell it on the mountain
           A7        D
That Jesus Christ is born

      D
While shepherds kept their watching
     A                D
O'er silent flocks by night
Behold throughout the heavens
      E            A     A7
There shone a Holy light

Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

The shepherds feared and trembled
When, lo! Above the Earth
Rang out the angel chorus
That hailed our Savior's birth

Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born

Down in a lowly manger
Our humble Christ was born
And brought us all salvation
That blessed Christmas morn

Go, tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go, tell it on the mountain
That Jesus Christ is born
That Jesus Christ is born
