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 winter's night That was so deep Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel 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 All glory to the newborn King The promised prophesied Messiah Redeemer is He Born that night in a manger A miracle birth Son of God yet son of man Sent to save all the earth Angels sent to tell shepherds In the night Wise men coming from afar Following the light All pointing to the star Shining bright All leading to Emmanuel Now with us Our Saviour King Noel Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel Born is the King of Israel
