THE FIRST NOEL

The first Noel the angels did say

Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they
lay:

[Verse 4]
This star drew nigh to the north-west;
O'er Bethlehem it took it's rest,
And there it did both stop and stay,

In fields where they lay keeping their sheep

Right over the place where Jesus lay.

On a cold winter's night that was so deep.

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel.

Born is the King of Israel.

[Verse 5]

[Verse 2]

Then entered in those wise men three,

They looked up and saw a star

Fell reverently upon their knee,

Shining in the east beyond them far:

And offered there in his presence

And to the earth it gave great light

Their gold and myrrh and frankincense.

And so it continued both day and night.

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the kind of Israel.

Born is the King of Israel.

[Verse 6]

[Verse 3]

Then let us all with one accord

And by the light of that same star

Sing praises to our heavenly Lord,

Three wise men came from the country far;

That hath made heaven and earth of naught,

To seek for a King was their intent,

And with his blood mankind has bought.

And to follow the star wherever it went.

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,

Born is the King of Israel.

Born is the King of Israel.
