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.
