The first Nowell
The first Nowell, 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 (Nowell)
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
(Bless our soul)
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the east beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light (ah, ah)
And so it continued, both day and night (ah)
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
(Ah) and by the light of that same star
Three wise men came from country far
To seek for a king was their intent (to seek)
And to follow the star wherever it went
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
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
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
Born is the King of Israel
