| 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 |
|
|
|
| |
Born is the king of Israel |
|
|
|
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 |
|
|
|
|
|
This star drew nigh to the northwest |
|
|
O'er bethlehem it took the rest |
|
|
And there it did both stop and stay |
|
|
Right over the place where jesus lay |
|
|
|
|
|
Then entered in those wise men three |
|
|
Full reverently upon their knee |
|
|
And offered there in his presence |
|
|
Their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense |
|
