The First Noël Lyrics
The First Noël - Mitch Miller and The Gang
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
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
This star drew nigh to the north west
O'er 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 entered in those wise men three
Fell reverently upon their knee
And offered there in his presence
Their gold and myrrh and frankincense
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the king of Israel
