As Joseph was a-walking He heard an angel sing,
This night shall be born Our heavenly King.
He neither shall be born
In housen nor in hall,
Nor in the place of Paradise,
But in an ox's stall.
Noel, Noel.
As Joseph was a-walking He heard an angel sing,
This night shall be born Our heavenly King.
He neither shall be clothéd
In purple or in pall,
But all in fair linen
As wear babies all.
Noel, Noel.
As Joseph was a-walking He heard an angel sing,
This night shall be born Our heavenly King.
He neither shall be rocked
In silver nor in gold,
But in a wooden cradle
That rocks on the mould.
Noel, Noel.
As Joseph was a-walking He heard an angel sing,
This night shall be born Our heavenly King.
He neither shall be christenéd
In white wine nor in red,
But in the fair spring water
As we were christenéd.
Noel, Noel.
