The first Noel the angel did say
was to certain poor shepards
in fields as they lay:
in fields where they lay a-keeping their sheep
on a cold winter's 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: a
nd 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
three wise men came from the 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.
This star drew nigh to the north-west;
o'er 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.
