The First Noel Lyrics by Jennifer Nettles

To Celebrate Christmas

2016

[Verse 1]
The First Noel, the Angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields where they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep

[Refrain]
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!

[Verse 2]
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

[Refrain]
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel!
|4x|

[Outro]
Noel
Noel
