"The First Noël" lyrics

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

We will sing out hallelujah
Son of heaven, come to dwell
We will bow down, we will worship
Our Messiah, Emmanuel

Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath made heaven and earth of naught
And with His blood mankind has bought

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

We will sing out hallelujah
Son of heaven, come to dwell
We will bow down, we will worship
Our Messiah, Emmanuel
We will sing out hallelujah
Son of heaven, come to dwell
We will bow down, we will worship
Our Messiah, Emmanuel
