The First Noel
Celestial Revelations: The Profound Message of The First NoelLyrics
The first Noel the angels did say
The angels proclaimed the message of the first Christmas
Was to certain poor shepherds in
Specifically to a group of impoverished shepherds
Fields as they lay
These shepherds were situated in fields
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
The shepherds were watching over their flock
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
During a profoundly cold and dark winter night
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Repetition of the word "Noel" - possibly an exclamation of joy or celebration
Born is the King of Israel
Refers to the birth of the King of Israel, symbolizing Jesus Christ
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Repetition of the word "Noel" - likely emphasizing the significance of the message
They looked right up and saw a star
The shepherds observed a star in the eastern sky
Shining in the east beyond them far
The star was shining far away in the east
And to the Earth
The star illuminated the Earth
(The first Noel) , it gave great light
The star provided significant brightness
And so it continued both day and night
This brightness persisted both day and night
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel (The first Noel)
Reiteration of "Noel" - reinforcing the importance of the message
Born is the King of Israel! (Ahh ahh ahh)
Reaffirmation of the birth of the King of Israel, perhaps with added vocalizations
The first Noel the angels did say
Reiteration of the angels' announcement
Was to certain poor shepherds in
Reiterating the specific audience of the message
Fields as they lay
The shepherds were in the fields
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
They were tending to their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
It was a very cold and deep winter night
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Repeating the joyful exclamation "Noel"
Born is the King of Israel
Declaring the birth of the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Reiteration of the proclamation of Christ's birth
Born is the King of Israel
Restating the birth of the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Concluding repetition of the joyful exclamation "Noel"
