Traditional
First Noel
[Intro]
So many times in my life, I think back to the days of my childhood
Now they were some very special times
But none were ever as special as the memories of Christmas in the Smokey Mountains
Well I could close my eyes right now and I can still see that lil' ol' country church just full of neighbors, family and friends
I can still hear that country preacher talkin' about the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ
And I remember how I used to love all those old Christmas songs

[Verse 1]
The first Noel, the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields where they lay
In fields where lay they're keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep

[Chorus]
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel

[Verse 2]
The first Noel, the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields where they lay
In fields where lay they're keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep

[Chorus]
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel
[Verse 3]
For all to see there was a bright star
Shining in the east beyond them far
And through the Earth, it gave great light
And so it continued both day and night

[Chorus]
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel
