The First Noel

English carol from early period. This is the Cornish version, 1823

And by the light of that same star
Three Wisemen 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!

Nativity set: Sleeping Mary (Ecuador) from the Marian Library's Crèche Collection
