Refrain: Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Nowell, Born is the King of Israel! 2 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. [Refrain] 3 And by the light of that same star, Three Wise Men came from country afar; To seek for a king was their intent, And to follow the star wherever it went. [Refrain] 4 This star drew nigh to the northwest, O'er Bethlehem it took its rest, And there it did both stop and stay, Right over the place where Jesus lay. [Refrain] 5 Then entered in those Wise Men three Full reverently upon their knee, And offered there in His presence Their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense. [Refrain] 6 Then let us all with one accord Sing praises to our heavenly Lord; That both made heaven and earth of naught, And with His blood mankind hath bought. [Refrain] Amen.
