The first noël, the angel did say,
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields where they lay.
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep,
On a cold winter’s night that was so deep.
Chorus
Noël, noël, noël, noël,
Born is the King of Israel!
Verse 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.
Verse 3
And by the light of that same star,
Three wise men came from country afar.
To seek for a king was their intent,
And to follow the star wherever it went.
