GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN
Chorus:
(G) Go tell it on the mountain
(D) Over the hills and (G) everywhere
(G) Go tell it on the (Em) mountain
That (C) Jesus (D7) Christ is (G) born
(D) The shepherds all were (G) watching
(D) Over the sheep at (G) night
(D) When a guiding star shone from (Em) heaven
And they (C) followed that holy (D7) light (G)
Chorus
They found a lowly manger
Where the humble Christ was born
And God sent us salvation
On that blessed Christmas morn
Chorus
He brought with Him forgiveness
He lived to show us the way
He came to redeem all creation
And to wash all our sins away
Chorus
