Boney M. - The First Noel Lyrics
Chorus:The first noel the angels did sayWas to certain poor shepherds in fields as they layIn fields where they lay keeping their sheepOn a cold winters night that was so deep.Noel, noel, noel, noelBorn is the king of israelVerse1:They looked up and saw a starShining in the east, beyond them farAnd to the earth it gave great lightAnd so it continued both day and nightNoel, noel, noel, noelBorn is the king of israel(the following 4 verses are not sung on the boney m version)And by the light of that same starThree wise men came from country far;To seek for a king was their intent,And to follow the star wherever it went.(chorus)This star drew nigh to the northwest,Oer bethlehem it took it rest,And there it did both stop and stayRight over the place where jesus lay.(chorus)Then entered in those wise men threeFull reverently upon their knee,And offered there in his presenceTheir gold, and myrrh, and frakincense.(chorus)Then let us all with one accordSing praises to our heavenly lord;That hath made heaven and earth of naught,And with his blood mankind hath bought.(chorus)The first noel the angels did sayWas to certain poor shepherds in fields as they layIn fields where they lay keeping their sheepOn a cold winters night that was so deep.Noel, noel, noel, noelBorn is the king of israel
