Description
Part of the Beckenhorst Congregational Anthem Series, Molly Ijames' setting of The First Noel works equally well as an Easy SATB anthem or as a congregational anthem. Choral parts are easily learned but elegant and satisfying, and piano (or optional orchestra) adds motion and interest, creating a setting that can work everywhere from a small church choir to a large Christmas program with full orchestra. A wonderfully useable staple for many Christmases to come!

Poetic Lyrics
Noel, noel, Christ is born, noel.
The first noel the angel did say
was to certain poor shepherds in fields where they lay;
in fields where they lay keeping their sheep
on a cold winter’s night that was so deep.
Noel, noel, noel, noel,
born is the King of Israel.
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.
Noel, noel, noel, noel,
born is the King of Israel.
Christ is born, noel!
Then let us all with one accord
sing praises to our heav’nly Lord
that hath made earth and heav’n of naught
and with His blood mankind hath bought.
Noel, noel, noel, noel,
born is the King of Israel.
Noel, noel, Christ is born, noel.
