Lyrics

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

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
(Last time) nowell, nowell
Nowell, nowell
