The  First No- el, The  Angels did  say,  
        Bm            F#m           G               A
Was to  certain poor  shepherds in  fields as they  lay.
    D             F#m       G              D
In  fields where  they lay  keeping their  sheep, 
      Bm             F#m         G       Asus4    A7
On a  cold winter's  night that  was so  deep...

   D       F#m     G       D   /C# 
No-el,  No-el,  No-el,  No-el,  
Bm           F#m      G   A     D    F#m    G     A
Born is the  King of  I - sra - el!

 
      D       F#m      G      D	
They  looked  up, and  saw a  star, 
         Bm      F#m     G         A
Shining  in the  east be-yond them far.
     D       F#m       G           D    /C#      
And  to the  earth it  gave great  light.        
     Bm        F#m          G        A
And  so it con-tinued both  day and  night.

No-el,  No-el,  No-el,  No-el,

Born is the  King of Isra - el!
