Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

The first Noel the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepards in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay a keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel

Yeah

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
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel

Hu
Yeah
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Ho

Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Oh

Born is the King
Oh Noel
