The First Noel

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. They lookèd up and saw a star Shining in the east, beyond them far; And to the earth it gave a great light, And so it continued both day and night. Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, Born is the King of Israel.
