Great joy on the mountain Stars in the sky Shepherds in the fields With their flocks nearby Off in the distance In the sacred light of morn A tired mother whispers "He is born" That's why we sing Noel That's why we sing Noel These gifts we bring To the newborn king That's why we sing Noel A voice for the voiceless Strength for the weak Bread for the hungry A shield for the meek How could a child wrapped up so small Be the one who came to save us all? That's why we sing Noel That's why we sing Noel These gifts we bring To the newborn king That's why we sing Noel Noel, Noel Noel, Noel Noel, Noel Noel, Noel Noel, Noel Noel, Noel That's why we sing Noel That's why we sing Noel Prince of peace Everlasting king That's why we sing Noel
