The First Noel lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics  The First Noel lyrics The first Noel, the angels did say Was to certain poor shepherds, in fields as 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 Over Bethlehem it took it s rest And there it did both stop and stay Right over the place where Jesus lay Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, born is the King of Israel Then they did know and in wonder confide That within that house a king did reside One entered in then, with his own eyes to see And discovered the babe in poverty Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, born is the Kng of Israel Between the stalls of the oxen, forlorn This child on that cold night in truth was born And for want of a crib, Mary did him lay In the depths of a manger amongst the hay Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel born is the King of Israel Then entered in all those wise men three Fell reverently upon bended knee And offered there in hpresence Their gold and of myrrh and of frankincense 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 song lyrics
