Carpenters - Overture (An Old-Fashioned Christmas) lyrics
[Carpenters - Overture An Old-Fashioned Christmas lyrics]
The first Noel the angel did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in
Fields as they lay
In fields where they lay tending their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born is the King of Israel
They lookèd 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
O little town of Bethlehem
How still we see thee lie!
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep
The silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets
Shineth the everlasting Light
The hopes and fears of all the
Years are met in thee tonight
Glory Gloria in excelsios Deo
