Am F Am Today is a very fine day, a very happy day in every way D E Am Today is a very fine day-put your hands together and pray Am F Am The angel came mighty close, in the middle of the night he came so close D E Am The angel came mighty close and then he carried on his way
[Chorus]
Am C G Am He passed over, passed over, passed over
[Verse 2]
Am F Am We slew the lamb and smeared his blood, killed the little lamb to stay the hand of God D E Am We slaughtered the lamb and caught his blood and daubed it on the door Am F Am We heard the beating of the wings, heard the busy beating of the terrible wings D E Am We heard the beating of the wings and then we heard nothing at all
[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Am F Am The first born child was burning up, in the middle of the night he called for a cup D E Am The first born child was burning up, begging for his mama to come Am F Am Mama mopped his burning brow, mama dear came with a cool, cool towel D E Am Mama mopped his burning brow and stayed watching over him
[Chorus]

Am F Am The first born son came down the stairs, mama dear kissed his curly brown hair D E Am The first born child came down the stairs, hungry as a grizzly bear Am F Am Today is a very fine day, a very happy day in every way D E Am Today is a very fine day, the angel carried on his way
[Chorus]
Am C G Am He passed over, passed over, passed over
