C G
The first Noel
F C
the angels did say
F
Was to certain poor
Em F G C
Shepherds in fields as they lay:
C G
In fields where they
F C
Lay keeping their sheep
F Em F G C
On a cold winter's night that was so deep.

C G F C
Noel Noel, Noel Noel
F Em F G C
Born is the King of Israel.

C G
They looked up
F C
and saw a star
F Em F G C
Shining in the east beyond them far:
C G
And to the earth
F C
it gave great light
F Em F G C
And so it continued both day and night.

C G F C
Noel Noel, Noel Noel
F Em F G C
Born is the King of Israel.

C G
And by the light
F C
of that same star
F Em F G C
Three wise men came from the country far;
C G
To seek for a King
F C
was their intent,
F Em F G C
And to follow the star wherever it went.

C G F C
Noel Noel, Noel Noel
F Em F G C
Born is the King of Israel.

C G
This star drew nigh
F C
to the north-west;
F Em F G C
O'er Bethlehem it took it's rest,
C G
And there it did
F C
both stop and stay,
F Em F G C
Right over the place where Jesus lay.

C G F C
Noel Noel, Noel Noel
F Em F G C
Born is the King of Israel.

C G
Then entered in
F C
those wise men three,
F Em F G C
Fell reverently upon their knee,
C G
And offered there
F C
in his presence
F Em F G C
Their gold and myrrh and frankincense.

C G F C
Noel Noel, Noel Noel
F Em F G C
Born is the King of Israel.

C G
Then let us all
F C
with one accord
F Em F G C
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord,
C G
That hath made heav'n
F C
and earth of nought,
F Em F G C
And with his blood mankind has bought.

C G F C

F Em F G C
Born is the King of Israel.
