The First Noel - The December People, John Wetton

The first Noel, the Angels did say

Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay

In the fields where they lay keeping their sheep

On a cold winter’s night that was, oh so, so deep

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel

Looking out, they saw a star

In the east beyond them far

And to the earth it gave light

So they continued day and night

By the light of that star

Three wise men came from far

To seek the King was their intent

And to follow the star wherever it went

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel

Well, this star drew to northwest

Over Bethlehem it rest

And there it stopped and there it stayed

Over the place where Jesus lay

And those wise men three

Fell upon their knees

And offered there in His presence

Their gifts for all to see

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
