116, Dave James, Trip Lee - Noel lyrics

Yeah

Baby laying in the manger
On the first (On the first) , first Noel
Being treated like a stranger (Feeling like)
On the first (On the first) , first Noel
Ain't no crowds or disciples (With no crowds)
On the first (On the first) , first Noel
Flesh and bone just like you (Flesh and bone)
On the first (On the first, on the first)
The first Noel (yeah) noel, Noel
The first Noel (On the first) noel, Noel
The first Noel

Creation been groanin'
Then the sun showed up, good mornin'
Even those who waited for Him
Could've looked Him in the eyes
And would've known Him
I'd like to say that I would, but I can't
Bro who would've known that a
Baby would reign all
The One who made the skies and cried
Still surprised you could swaddle up God
Spotlight, give Him center stage
Follow your star down the interstate
Silly sheep (yeah) , we went astray
But He arrived
(Right) , not a minute late (yeah)
Heart carpenter, came to renovate (Renovate)
Came to serve
Gave me Word on the dinner plate
(Word, uh huh)
Who would've known that this babe was
The King on the throne?

The first Noel noel, Noel
The first Noel noel, Noel (Yessir)
The first Noel

The people be yearning
For some hope, but the folks kept turning
Him away, He was born with the vermin
Living Word, He the last great sermon
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
He descended to where sinners be
And rejected Him
Who brought 'em what they really need
(Crazy) creation's groans are retired (Word)
Drowned out by the baby's first cry (yeah)
Lift Him up, He the centerpiece
Came to His home, it was bittersweet
(Bittersweet)
He was in the womb, plotting inner peace
(Inner peace)
Made friends out of enemies (yeah)
The winning streak
(Huh) , it ain't finna cease
Baby clothes couldn't cloak His divinity
Yeah who would've known that this babe was
The King on the throne?

Baby laying in the manger
On the first (On the first) , first Noel
Being treated like a stranger (Feeling like)
On the first (On the first) , first Noel
Ain't no crowds or disciples (With no crowds)
On the first (On the first) , first Noel
Flesh and bone just like you (Flesh and bone)

It wasn't that easy to find You
(yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
But now that I'm here it's the safest place
(Safest place)
I see all the light that's inside You
(See, see, see)
A river that's flowing, unending grace

Noel, Noel (On the first) noel, Noel (yeah)
The first Noel (Yessir) noel, Noel (Uh, huh)
The first Noel noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel born is the King
Born is the King, yeah
Born is the King of Israel
