It came upon the midnight clear  That glorious song of old  From angels playing near the earth  To touch their harps of gold    Peace on the Earth could will two men  From Heaven's all-gracious King  The world in solemn stillness lay   To hear the angels sing    And I hear them singing  Sing, I do hear them singing    The first noel the angel did say  Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay  In fields where they lay, they keeping their sheep  On a cold winter's night that was so deep    Noel, noel, noel, noel  Born is the King of Israel  Noel, noel, noel, noel  Born is the King of Israel    They looked up and saw a star  Shining in the east beyond them far    Noel, noel, noel, noel  Born is the King  Born is the King  Born is the King of Israel
