The First Noël

The first Noel the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds
In fields as they lay,
In fields where they,
Laying 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 [Bm]saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them [A]far,
And to [C7]the earth it gave great light,
And so it continued both day and [Bm]night.
Noel Noel Noel Noel!
Born is the King of Israel!

And by the light of that same star
Three wise men came from countɾy far,
To seek for [Dm7]a King was [Am7]their intent
And to [C7]follow the star
Wherever it went.
Noel Noel Noel Noel!
Born is the King of Israel!
