| 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
|
| Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
|
| Born is the King of Israel
|
| They looked 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
|
| Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
|
| Born is the King of Israel
|
| Then let us all with one accord
|
| (Then let us all with one accord)
|
| Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
|
| (Sing praises to our heavenly Lord)
|
| That hath made heaven and earth of nought
|
| (That hath made heaven and earth of nought)
|
| And with his blood mankind hath bought
|
| (And with his mankind hath bought)
|
| Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
|
| Born is the King of Israel
|
| Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell
|
| Born is the King (Born is the King)
|
| Born is the King (Born is the King)
|
| Born is the King of Israel |
