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      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      And by the light of that same star   Three Wise men came from 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 northwest   O'er Bethlehem it took its rest   And there it did both Pause and stay   Right o'er the place where Jesus      Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel   Born is the King of Israel      Then entered in those Wise men three   Full reverently upon their knee   And offered there in His presence   Their gold and myrrh and frankincense      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 has bought      Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel   Born is the King of Israel
