The First Nowell |
| 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 |
| 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 wheresoever it went |
| Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell |
| Born is the King of Israel |
| The star drew nigh to the north-west |
| O’er Bethlehem it took its rest |
| And there it did both stop and stay |
| Right over the place where Jesus lay |
| Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell |
| Born is the King of Israel |
