The First Nowell the Angel Did Say
Hymnal: The Worshipbook #585 (1972) Meter: Irregular First Line: The first Nowell the angel did say Refrain First Line: Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell Lyrics: 1 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.
[Refrain:]
Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell,
Born is the King of Israel!
2 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. [Refrain]
3 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 wherever it went. [Refrain]
4 This star drew nigh to the northwest,
O'er Bethlehem it took its rest,
And there it did both stop and stay,
Right over the place where Jesus lay. [Refrain]
5 Then entered in those Wise Men three,
Fell reverently upon their knee,
And offered there in his presence,
Their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense. [Refrain]

Shining in the east, beyond them far;
And to the earth it gave great light,
And so it continued both day and night. [Refrain]

And to follow the star wherever it went. [Refrain]

Their gold and myrrh and frankincense. [Refrain]
