Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

The First Noel the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds
In fields as they lay
In fields where they lay watching 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 saw a star
Shining in the east beyond them afar
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

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel

Hark, the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
Peace on earth, and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled
Joyful, all ye nations, rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With the angelic host proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Hark, the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King

Hail, the Heaven Prince of peace
Hail, the Son of Righteousness
Light and life to all He brings
Risen with healing in His wings

Hark, the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
Peace on earth, and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled

Hark, the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
Ah ah ah, ah ah ah ah

Adeste fideles læti triumphantes
Venite, venite in Bethlehem
Natum videte
Regem angelorum
Venite adoremus
Venite adoremus
Venite adoremus
Dominum

Oh come, all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant
Oh come ye, oh come ye to Bethlehem
Come and behold Him, born the King of Angels

Oh come, let us adore Him
Oh come, let us adore Him
Oh come, let us adore Him
Christ the Lord

We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
We wish you a lot of presents
We wish you a lot of presents
We wish you a lot of presents and a lot of the cheer

We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
We wish you a Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
