Johnny Mathis - Merry Christmas

The First Noel (with Percy Faith)

The first Noel, the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay, keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far
And to the Earth, it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

This star grew nigh to the north-west
O'er Bethlehem, it took its rest
And there it did both stop and stay
Right over the place where Jesus lay
Noel, noel, noel, noel
Born is the King of Israel

Then entered in there, wise men three
Full reverently upon their knee
And offered there in his presence
Their gold and myrrh and frankincense
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
