Lyrics

Verse 1 The first Noel the angel did say Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay; In fields where they lay tending their sheep, On a cold winter's night that was so deep. Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, born is the King of Israel. Verse 2 They lookèd 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. Verse 3 And by the light of that same star three Wise Men came from country far; To seek for a King was their intent, and to follow the star wherever it went. Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, born is the King of Israel. Verse 4 This star drew nigh to the northwest, over 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. Verse 5 Then did they know assuredly within that house the King did lie; One entered it them for to see, and found the Babe in poverty. Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, born is the King of Israel....
