‘The First Noel’ A Cappella Christmas Carol From Pentatonix - Staff Picks

The talented a cappella ensemble of Pentatonix performs a breathtaking rendition of ‘The First Noel.’ This classic Christmas song is the perfect reminder of the real reason for the season, the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

‘The first Noel the angel did say
was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay;
in fields where they lay keeping their sheep,
on a cold winter's night that was so deep.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
born is the King of Israel.’

Pentatonix burst onto the music scene after winning the a cappella competition, ‘The Sing Off.’ Since that time, these five incredible vocalists have garnered millions of views across social media with their popular covers and unique musical arrangements.

Today, they are ringing in the Christmas season with an awe-inspiring performance of ‘The First Noel.’ This is one of those classic Christmas songs that we all know and love.

The powerful words remind us of the impact that came from the birth of Jesus. He was a tiny baby born in a manger in Bethlehem, but He would go on to save the entire world.

‘They looked 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.
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel,
born is the King of Israel.’

Luke 2:10 “And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.”
