The First Noel
William Sandys
The first noel
The angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds
In fields where 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 let us all
With one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath in heaven and earth of nought
And with his blood mankind hath bought
Noel, noel, noel, noel
Born is the King of Israel
Born is the King
Born is the King
Born is the King
