The First Noel

Hymnal: AMEC1984 #111 (2011) Meter: Irregular with refrain First Line: The first Noel, the angel did say Refrain First Line: Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel Lyrics: 1 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. Refrain: Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel, Born is the King of Israel. 2 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. [Refrain] 3 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. [Refrain] 4 This star drew nigh to the northwest, O'er Bethlehem it took its rest, And there it did both stop and stay, Right over the place where Jesus lay. [Refrain] 5 Then entered in those wise men three, Full reverently upon the knee, And offered there, in His presence, Their gold and myrrh and frank incense.
