(Traditional) |
|
The first Noel the angels did say |
|
Was to certain poor shepherds in field 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. |
|
This star drew nigh to the north west |
|
Over Bethlehem it took it's 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... |
