The First Nowell

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:
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell,
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

REFRAIN

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

The star drew nigh to the north-west,
o'er Bethlehem it took its rest,
and there it did both stop and stay,
right over the place where jesus lay.

REFRAIN

Then entered in those wise men three,
full reverently upon their knee,
and offered there, in His presence,
their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense.

REFRAIN

Then let us all with one accord,
sing praises to our heavenly lord.
That hath made heaven and earth of nought,
and with his blood mankind hath bought.

REFRAIN
