Refrain Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel!
Born is the King of Israel.
1 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.
Stanzas 2-4 available in purchased product; omitted in free on-line demo
5 Then entered in those Wise Men three,
Full rev'rently upon their knee,
And offered there in his presence
Their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense.
