"The First Noel" is a well known Christmas carol.

Words

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 in 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 in the king of Israel

This star drew nigh to the northwest

Over Bethlehem it took its rest

And there it did both stop and stay

Right over the place where Jesus lay

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, born in 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 in the king of Israel
