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.



Then let us all,

With one accord,

Singing phrases to

Our heavenly Lord.

Who hath made Heaven,

And earth of naught.

And with his blood,

Mankind hath bought.



Noel, Noel,

Noel, Noel,

Born is the King of Israel.



Noel, Noel,

Noel, Noel,

Born is the King,

Born is the King,

Born is the King of Israel.
