Day 8 of the 12 Days Until Christmas in Sacred Word and Song






After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews?We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”

Listen here:


The First Noel

The First Noel,
the Angels 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

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.


Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel!



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.


Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel!



This star drew nigh to the northwest

O'er Bethlehem it took its rest

And there it did both
Pause and stay
Right o'er the place where Jesus lay.


Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel!



Then entered in those Wise men three

Full reverently upon their knee

And offered there in His presence

Their gold and myrrh and frankincense.


Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel! 



Then let us all with one accord

Sing praises to our heavenly Lord

That hath made Heaven and earth of nought

And with his blood mankind has bought.


Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel

Born is the King of Israel!
