The First Noel
William Sandys
Born is the King of Israel
The first noel the angel 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, they looked up and saw a bright star
Shining in the east beyond them so far
And to the earth, oh, it gave a great light
And so it continued both day and night
Noel, noel, noel, noel
Born is the King of Israel
Born is the King of Israel
Let all creation sing
Noel, noel, noel, noel
Born is the King of Israel
