Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The first Nowell 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
[Verse 2]
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
[Verse 3]
They lookéd 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
[Verse 4]
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
[Verse 5]
And by the light of that same star
Three wise men came from country far
To seek for a King was their intent
And to follow the star wherever it went
[Verse 6]
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
[Verse 7]
The star drew nigh to the northwest
O'er Bethlehem it took its rest
And there it did both stop and stay
Right over the place where Jesus lay
[Verse 8]
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
[Verse 9]
Then entered in those wise men three
Full reverently upon their knee
And offered there in His presence
Their gold and myrrh and frankincense
[Verse 10]
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
[Verse 11]
Then let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our Heavenly Lord
That hath made heaven and earth of nought
And with his blood mankind hath bought
[Verse 12]
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
Born is the King of Israel
