The first noel the angel 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! 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 Sing praises to our heavenly lord That hath made heaven and earth of naught And with his blood mankind hath bought Noel, Noel Noel, Noel Born is the King of Israel
