The First Noel, 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.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far
And to [...]

When a poor man came in sight,
Gath’ring winter fuel
“Hither, page, come stand by me
If thou know’st it, telling
Yonder peasant, who is he?
Where and what his dwelling?”

There’s a tumult of joy
O’er the wonderful birth,
For the virgin’s sweet boy
Is the Lord of the earth.
Ay! the star [...]
