The First Noel

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 For all to see, there was 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 The wise men came from country far To seek for a king was their intent And to follow the star wherever it went Then let us all with one accord Sing praises to our heavenly Lord Who has made heaven and earth of naught And with His blood mankind has 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
