The first No?l the angel 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
No?l, No?l, No?l, No?l
Born is the King of Israel
They look-ed 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
No?l, No?l, No?l, No?l
Born is the King of Israel
This star drew nigh unto the northwest
O'er Bethlehem it took its rest
And there it did both stop and stay
Right over the place where Jesus lay
No?l, No?l, No?l, No?l
Born is the King of Israel
Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath made heaven and earth of naught
And with his blood mankind hath bought
