The First Noel (Born Is The King)

The First Noel (Born Is The King)
Verse 1:
The first Noel
Earth and heaven embraced
As a virgin beheld
Her new born babe
From realms on high
To manger on Earth
Salvation had dawned
In a lowly birth

Chorus:
Noel, Noel
Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Verse 2:
The Son of God in kindness
He came
As a friend to the hopeless
The lost and the lame
Our sins He bore yet His name
We despised
And the hands that brought healing
Where pierced as He died
Verse 3:
The Author of Life
There lifeless He lay
As the grave cast its shadow
And darkness reigned
Then out of death
Broke forth a great light
As He rose up in victory
The glorious Christ
Bridge:
Now let us all with one accord
Bring praises to our King
All glory power and honor be
Forever unto Him
