The First Noel - Sleeping At Last

The first Noel the angels did say\nWas to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay\nIn fields where they lay keeping their sheep\nOn a cold winter’s night that was so deep\nNoel, Noel, Noel, Noel\nBorn is the King of Israel\nAnd to the earth it gave great light\nAnd so it continued both day and night\nNoel, Noel, Noel, Noel\nBorn is the King of Israel\nThis star drew nigh to the north-west\nO’er Bethlehem it took it’s rest\nAnd there it did both pause and stay\nRight over the place where Jesus lay\nNoel, Noel, Noel, Noel\nBorn is the King of Israel\nNoel, Noel, Noel, Noel\nBorn is the King of Israel
