Headwaters Worship - Unexpected Noel (feat. Chaz Bell) Lyrics

Noel, noel, noel, noel
Born is the King of Israel
He came not to a throne, nor a crown on his head
Not a palace warm, but a borrowed bed
And to that cold bed, lowly shepherds came
The only subjects to worship his name
Noel, noel, unexpected noel
Born is the King of Israel
He was born far from home
Then down the refugee road
His family left fleeing, the angel forebode
The word that was with God now with sorrow fraught
Despised and rejected, we esteemed him not
Noel, noel, unexpected noel
Born is the King of Israel
So let us all with one accord
Sing praises to our heavenly Lord
Who has for us salvation wrought
And with his blood mankind has bought
Noel, noel, unexpected noel
Born is the King of Israel
