The First Noel

The first noel, the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they
Lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winters 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

And by the light of that same star
Three wise men came from country far
To seek for a King was their intent
And follow the star wherever it went

Noel, noel
Noel, noel
Born is the king of Israel

Noel, noel
Noel, noel
Born is the king of Israel

Then entered in those Wise men three
Fell reverently upon their knees
And offered there in His presence
Their gold and myrrh and frankincense

Noel, noel
Noel, noel
Born is the king of Israel

Born is the king of Israel
