The First Noel, the angel did say Was to certain poor shepherds, in fields as they lay In fields as they lay, keeping their sheep On a cold winter's night, that was so deep
The sorrow all around us At last will be made right The age of hopeless darkness Will finally end tonight
Noel ohohoh, ohohoh Noel ohohoh, ohohoh
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
Our hope and all our longing Are met in thee tonight
Hallelujah, all the earth adores Singing, Emmanuel, God with us
