Xmas Eve Hash Run - On the Rocks Bar (HQ1)

Good Morning All,

Due to the devastation from TC Evan and with all the clean up and repair work happening around the country, we have decided to keep our Hash Run at OTR Bar for a few weeks. We did not think it would be a good look for us to be running and screaming On On while others are still struggling to get back on their feet...so to speak..

Our run will start at 1745 Hrs and we will have a live hare for the evening. It will be a BYO for the BBQ so if you plan on eating, please do bring something and not rely on the rest to supply food.

See you all there!

On On

Xmas Hash Trash 2012

XMAS HASH RUN 1652
‘Twas two Hash Runs before Xmas, when all through the Snakepit, not a creature was stirring not even a Horny Ho....this is going to be too hard if I keep trying to tie this in with a Christmas Poem so....
The Xmas Hash run started off with sweltering heat and costumes a plenty.  Dirty Dancer James was not in fact the Reindeer Dancer, but took the role as Santa and left the other med students to be the team of Reindeer, not forgetting Rudolph too.  Many other Hashmen and Meres were dolled up with tinsel, baubles, Santa hats and the like.
Fireman Sam and his crew arrived with the Fire truck for Santa and his elves to board and the pickup.  We headed out of the hot Snakepit and embarked on our journey toward our first stop and for our first glass of what was to be many a Vailima for the night.  Firstly we sang carols accompanied by Godfather’s Ukulele, and then were offered delightful finger food, vailima and juice.  Sassygirl, being the Hash Nazi for the night, quickly told us Hashers to wrap it up and head on to our next stop.
For us fortunate enough to be riding on the fire truck or pick up, we couldn’t help but notice that this year’s fire truck was making our Hasher’s work hard for their beers.  With the speed a lot faster than previous years.  You could see some of our poor Hashfolk struggling.  Fortunately the sun had lost some of its sting so we didn’t have any Hasher’s passing out.
Next stop was Cappuccino Vineyard where again carolling began, and with the singing of some of those reindeers, maybe they have missed their calling....methinks a cameo at Carols in the Park is due for them.  Again we were graciously attended to by the wonderful staff at CV. 
On On was the call and again the Hashers proceeded to head to On the Rocks, all the while with Santa tossing lollies to the children and other onlookers on the way.  Thankfully Santa was responsible and did not throw the lollies on to the road this year thus avoiding the local kids playing real life Frogger just to get them some candy.
Soon we joined all the old fogies that commune at On the Rocks and entertained the old Geezers with carols of old.  Again drinking down some lukewarm Vailima, the staff whilst being thoughtful for having the beer ready didn’t think to keep it in the cold towers.  Sassy again called the signal to be off and we left what was left of the warm beer to the geriatrics down at OTR.
YNot was our next port of call.  And yes more carolling to be done.  A quick stop it was as time was getting away from us.  Luckily the next stop was right next door at Paddles where the Hashmen and Mere entertained the patrons, and also gave an impromptu Birthday song and dance to Josh, Skidmark’s son who was dining with Skidmark and his family for his 10th Birthday.
Finally it was back to the Snakepit for us to go and have a Vailima or 10 to soothe our raspy throats from all that singing.
As we sojourned whilst Mismanagement were collecting the Hash Cash, the GM arrived after flying from Auckland (after a flight delay) and driving at high speed to be with us to call the Hash Circle to Order.  There were many items on the Agenda for this Xmas Hash run, with Awards and Namings, so there wasn’t to be any mucking around or we wouldn’t have been eating til Midnight.
As there were too many newbies to mention, GM gave a warm welcome to them and went on to the Rethreads.  We had to do the Rethreads in shifts as there were not enough Hash Mugs to go around so here goes:
Rethread Group 1 – Emily, DMT, Slippery, Meat Lovers, Pirate Princess, Anita and Naval Base, Uncle Fred.  Uncle Fred found this opportunity to congratulate the Fire Brigade for their support for us during this run. 
Rethread Group 2 – Toothfairy, Soprano, FBI, Walking Eagle, CB, GM, Xavier and Seismic.
Shoe Inspector Snake went around and found CB and also Gayboy (who though he got out of it because he had changed out of them).  CB’s new fancy shoes must have been one of those ones that drain well when in water as half of his came out before he had to drink it.  Gayboy’s seemed to be the normal variety so he managed to finish it all from his shoe.
Tallyho was got busted for talking, as was Poumuli who didn’t have “This Day in History” done for us, so Witchdoctor as closest living relative was made to take it.  The Reindeers were also threatened to quieten down or be shot.

It was then time for the Awards Ceremony.  Number 1 was Lewinsky who got Father and Husband of the Year Award for getting drunk and forgetting to pick his lovely wife and baby daughter up from the airport.

The Domestic Violence Award went to our Angry Bird of last week, Dave who thought it was UFC at his home resulting in a broken little toe to his little lady.  Dave tried with a Right of Reply, not realising there is no Right of Reply when it is GM awards.
GM then referred to last week’s Hash Run hosted at Skidmark, Dave and Alisha’s place, where Da Head went up to the Hostess asking when she was due.  Turns out she wasn’t pregnant but then he tried to cover up his mistake by hitting on her.

It was at this time, GM spied a bevy of people leaning on the red & white pick up that belonged to the Fire Brigade, so a representative of the Fire Department had to stand forth and take a down down.  Fireman Sam came up to take it as well as taking the opportunity to thank the Hashers for their condolences and support after the recent loss of his father.

GM awarded the Best Costume Award to Santa and his Reindeer.  So they had to take a down down.  Then Tallyho wanted one of the reindeer to donate their costume to the Hash Shrine.  Rudolph volunteered and proceeded to take off his antlers and nose, but he was eventually coerced to disrobe as well much to Snatch’s delight, although she was hoping for the Full Monty but as there were children present, we had to keep it PG.  The Hashman then tried crying out for the female Reindeer to donate too but that didn’t happen.

The Dumbass Award when to, you guessed it, Dumbass for forgetting to book a flight home to Samoa for his kids for Christmas.  GM said he was too busy looking at himself in the paper.
Suddenly a special guest arrived, the Hashmonk, looking very sexy in silver shoes.  She mentioned she had just jetted in, after being in Rio de Janeiro with Sexpot at the Mardi Gras Parade.  She was here to name a few new Hashmen and Meres into the fold. 
First up was Lucy who at the last Hash wanted to skinny dip in Dave & Alisha’s pool.  As the Monk saw that she was more than happy to strip off and dance around poles, she was christened “The Stripper”. 
Siv was next called up, she really wanted to name herself which the Monk was quick to point out – that just doesn’t happen.  She was named “Bollywood”.
Emily was up next and due to her swimming prowess was named “Alcatraz” due to the fact that not many criminals have ever been able to swim from there – but if she was ever to go there, we were sure she would be able to – freak that she is.
Fireman Sam was then called up – which the Scribe thought was already his hash name but found it was just a nickname.  The Monk then went on about how when Sam usually turns up to a fire it is already malala (charcoal), we thought he was going to be named that, or else “994” which is the number of the Fire Department, but then The Monk had tricked us all and named him “Fireman Sam”.
Next was the young couple who hosted las
t week’s Hash, Dave and Alisha.  The Monk with her omnipotent power had seen into the past, where she saw a younger Dave but still much older than his lady.  He tried to win her heart (amongst other things) despite the fact she in fact was not yet legal.  The Monk named him “Carnal Knowledge” and Alisha, “Jailbait”. 
Each newly named Hashman and Mere were christened in the usual manner with flour and water.  The Hash Monk must have been in a good mood after Rio as today the recipients were very lucky not to get the egg or tomato sauce that sometimes accompanies the Baptism.
The Monk then left as stealthily as she came not before having a down down herself – all that baptising is thirsty work.
The Angry Bird Award went from Carnal Knowledge to Slim Shady for turning up to a bloke’s poker game, and winning everything and then not wanting to go into Paddles for Xmas carols as it was too hot. 

The reindeers got a down down for chariot riding on the back of the fire truck.
Celebrity Award next and a lot of celebs due to Christmas Parties in full swing and other important current affairs.  These celebrities included volunteers, Dumbass, Sexpot, Slim Shady, Stick and Hot Nuts.

Lewinsky got nominated for not writing a speech for a wedding that the GM had to do instead.  Lewinsky piped up saying “Being Best Man is like making love to the Queen – It’s a great honour but no one wants to do it”. Although Tallyho put his hand up to it being loyal to the throne as he is.
The final awards to be presented were the ones that have been on the AHHH website.  And they went as follows:
Prick of the Year with a staggering 52% of votes - CB, he took his down down in the cock glass but did so with his hat and sunglasses on, so had to have another.

Tit of the Year went to Screamer with 47% of votes.  As Screamer was absent, the closest living relative was the lovely Goldfinger who had to drink from the nipple of the titflask.  FBI piped up that he almost came in his pants as he watched her.

Hash Run of the Year went, not surprisingly, to Pussysnatcher for one of his epic runs around Vailima/Letava way hosted by Ladyfinger and Dried Nuts which included bush bashing, rope climbing and the like.

GM then announced it was time for nominations.  Sassy was first (as usual) and she nominated the reindeer:  Donner, Vixen, Dancer and Prancer for their wonderful singing during the carolling.  Stay tuned for the Christmas Album out next year!  
Carnal Knowledge awarded a Jessica Simpson Award to Probono for her establishment CV where he ordered a chicken sandwich but got a tuna sandwich instead.  Slim Shady pointed out to CK that tuna is the chicken of the sea.  In the end CK and Probono had a down down together.
GM with his beer hat on, spoke of a Hashman that was not happy with their name Dumbass, he kept saying it was supposed to be “Da Mass”.  Both Dumbass and GM had drink together.
Screamer nominated Godfather for losing Titty G’s pussy of the back of the pickup driving home from last week’s Hash run.

Three reindeer, Dancer, Prancer and Vixen were nominated for eating all the lollies on the back of the fire truck that were intended for the poor and needy whilst they were chariot riding at the same time.
Sassy nominated the Fire Service Guys for all their hard work and contributing to a great Hash Run once again.  Fireman Sam and his posse took their down downs.
Lewinsky nominated GM for acing his exams in Auckland and then racing back to GM the Hash Circle just in the nick of time.

Tallyho wanted to nominate Twin Peaks, AKA, FBI for god knows what (at this stage the Scribe had too many Vailima) but he was warned off but a hungry mob as the Hash crew were getting into Starvation mode.

Mismanagement were called up for contributing to Hash over the past year, they included POD, Lewinsky, Sassygirl, Eveready, Snake, GM and DH.  Poumuli was absent in the lead up to the birth of his first child with the lovely Wahoo, so missed out but many thanks to you for being Head Scribe.
We were informed that the Hash for next week, 17 December is open – any takers?  Uncle Fred then entered the circle and sang the Faafetai song, and the Hash Circle proceedings were called to an end. 
The crowd then helped themselves to a sumptuous Xmas Hash Feast, the efforts of Bev and her crew and there was food a plenty as well as many Vailima kegs to be drunk.  Music provided by Sassy’s car and Godfather’s ukulele made it a perfect end to a perfect Hash Run that was enjoyed by all.
Merry Christmas and On On.

3.   SILENT NIGHT

Silent night, holy night,

all is calm, all is bright

Round yon virgin Mother and Child,

holy Infant so tender and mild,

Sleep in heavenly peace,

Sleep in heavenly peace.

Silent night, holy night,

shepherds quake at the sight,

Glories stream from heaven afar,

heavenly hosts sing Alleluia.

Christ the Saviour is born,

Christ the Saviour is born.

Silent night, holy night,

Son of God, love's pure light,

Radiant beams from Thy holy face,

with the dawn of redeeming grace,

Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth,

Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth.

Silent night, holy night,

wondrous star, lend thy light;

With the angels let us sing,

Alleluia to our King.

Christ the Saviour is born, Christ the Saviour is born.

4.   HARK THE HERALD

Hark! the herald angels sing,

Glory to the newborn King;

Peace on earth and mercy mild,

God and sinners reconciled.

Joyful, all ye nations rise,

Join the triumph of the skies,

With angelic host proclaim,

Christ is born in Bethlehem,

Hark, the herald angels sing,

Glory to the newborn King.

Christ by highest heaven adored,

Christ the everlasting Lord.

Late in time behold Him come,

Offspring of the virgin's womb.

Veiled in flesh the God-head see;

Hail the incarnate Deity.

Pleased as man with men to dwell,

Jesus our Emanuel.

Hark, the herald angels sing,

Glory to the newborn King.

Hail, the heaven-born Prince of Peace.

Hail the Son of Righteousness.

Light and life to all He brings,

Risen with healing in His wings.

Mild He lays His glory by,

Born that man no more may die;

Born to raise the sons of earth,

Born to give them second birth.

Hark, the herald angels sing,

Glory to the newborn King.

5.   WHITE CHRISTMAS

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas,

Just like the ones we used to know,

When the tree tops glisten, and children listen

To hear sleigh bells in the snow.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas

With every Christmas card I write.

May your days be merry and bright,

And may all your Christmases be white.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas...

6.   JOY TO THE WORLD

Joy to the world, the Lord is come;

Let earth receive her King.

Let every heart prepare Him room,

And heaven and nature sing,

And heaven and nature sing,

And heaven and nature sing.

Joy to the earth, the Saviour reigns;

Let men their songs employ,

While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains

Repeat the sounding joy...

No more let sins and sorrows grow,

Nor thorns infest the ground.

He comes to make His blessings flow

Far as the curse is found...

He rules the world with truth and grace,

And makes the nations prove

The glories of His righteousness,

And wonders of His love...

7.   O COME ALL YE FAITHFUL

O come all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant,

O come ye, o come ye to Bethlehem.

Come and behold Him, born the King of Angels.

O come let us adore Him, O come let us adore Him,

O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.

Sing choirs of angels, sing in exultation

Sing, all citizens of heaven above,

Glory to God, glory in the highest,

O come let us adore Him, O come let us adore Him,

O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.

Yea, Lord, we greet Thee,

born this happy morning,

Jesus, to Thee be all glory given.

Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing,

O come let us adore Him, O come let us adore Him,

O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord.

8.   JINGLE BELLS

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,

Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh!

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way,

Oh, what fun it is to ride in a one-horse open sleigh!

Dashing through the snow in a one-horse open sleigh,

O'er the fields we go, laughing all the way.

Bells on bobbed tails ring, making spirits bright,

What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight.

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way...

[Hashmen]

A day or two ago I thought I'd take a ride

With a young hash mere sitting by my side;

The horse was lean and lank, misfortune seemed his way,

We ran into a drifted bank, and there I got a lay

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way...

[Hash meres]

A day or two ago, the story I must tell

I went out on the snow and on my back I fell;

A hash man riding by, in a one-horse open sleigh

He laughed as I was sprawling laid, but quickly had his way

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way...

Now the ground is snowy white, so go it while you're young.

Get a hash mere tonight, and sing the sleighing song.

Just get a fine hash chariot with a wide and comfy seat 

Then pull her shorts down to her knees and Crack! you'll take the lead.

Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way...

9.   GOD REST YE MERRY

God rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay,

Remember Christ our Saviour was born on Christmas day.

To save us all from Satan's power when we were gone astray.

O tidings of comfort and joy, comfort and joy,

O tidings of comfort and joy.

From God our Heavenly Father a blessed angel came,

And unto certain shepherds brought tidings of the same,

How that in Bethlehem was born the Son of God by name.

O tidings of comfort and joy...

Fear not, then, said the angel,

Let nothing you a-fright.

This day is born a Saviour of a pure Virgin bright.

To free all those who trust in Him from Satan's power and might.

O tidings of comfort and joy...

The shepherds at those tidings rejoiced much in mind,

And left their flocks a-feeding in tempest, storm and wind,

And went to Bethlehem straight way, the Son of God to find.

O tidings of comfort and joy...

Now to the Lord sing praises all you within this place,

And with true love and brotherhood each other now embrace,

this holy tide of Christmas all others doth deface.

O tidings of comfort and joy...

10. WE THREE KINGS

We three kings of orient are, bearing gifts we traverse afar;

Field and fountain, moor and mountain, following yonder star.

O star of wonder, star of night, star with royal beauty bright,

Westward leading, still proceeding, guide us to Thy perfect light.

Born a Babe on Bethlehem's plain,

gold I bring to crown Him again.

King forever, ceasing never, over us all to reign.

O star of wonder, star of night,

star with royal beauty bright,

Westward leading, still proceeding,

guide us to Thy perfect light.

Frankincense to offer have I,

incense owns a deity nigh,

Prayer and praising, all men raising,

worshipping God on high.

O star of wonder, star of night,

star with royal beauty bright,

Westward leading, still proceeding,

guide us to Thy perfect light.

Myrrh is mine, its bitter perfume

breathes a life of gathering doom;

Sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,

sealed in the stone-cold tomb.

O star of wonder, star of night,

star with royal beauty bright,

Westward leading, still proceeding,

guide us to Thy perfect light.

Glorious now behold Him arise,

King and God and Sacrifice;

Alleluia, Alleluia!

Sounds through the earth and skies.

O star of wonder, star of night,

star with royal beauty bright,

Westward leading, still proceeding,

guide us to Thy perfect light.

11. WE WISH YOU A MERRY

We wish you a Merry Christmas,

We wish you a Merry Christmas,

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Glad tidings we bring, to you and your kin,

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

So bring us a cold Vailima,

So bring us a cold Vailima,

So bring us a cold Vailima, and bring it right here.

And we won't go until we get some, We won't go until we get some,

We won't go until we get some, so bring it right now.

Glad tidings we bring...

So bring us some charcoaled snags,

So bring us some charcoaled snags,

So bring us some charcoaled snags, and bring them right here.

And we won't go until we get some, We won't go until we get some,

We won't go until we get some, so bring it right now.

Glad tidings we bring..

Now bring us some more Vailima,

So bring us some more Vailima,

We won't go until we get some, so bring it right now.

We wish you a merry Hashmas,
We wish you a merry Hashmas,
We wish you a merry Hashmas,
And a Hashful New Year.

12. GOOD KING WENCESLAS

Good King Wenceslas looked out on the Feast of Stephen,

When the snow lay round about, deep and crisp and even;

Brightly shone the moon that night, though the frost was cruel

When a poor man came in sight, gathering winter fuel.

Hither, page, and stand by me, if thou knowst its telling.

Yonder peasant, who is he, where and what his dwelling.

Sire, he lives a good league hence, underneath the mountain,

Right against the forest fence, by St Agnes' Fountain.

Bring me flesh and bring me wine, bring me pine logs hither;

Thou and I will see him dine when we bear them thither.

Page and monarch forth they went, forth they went together;

Through the rude wind's wild lament and the bitter weather.

Sire, the night is darker now, and the wind blows stronger;

Fails my heart, I know not how I can go no longer.

Mark my footsteps good, my page, tread thou in them boldly;

Thou shalt find the winter's rage freeze thy blood less coldly.

In his master's steps he trod, where the snow lay dinted;

Heat was in the very sod which the saint had printed;

Therefore, Christian men, be sure, wealth or rank possessing,

Ye who now will bless the poor, shall yourselves find blessing.

13. WHILE SHEPHERDS WATCHED THEIR FLOCKS

While shepherds watched their flocks by night,

All seated on the ground,

The angel of the Lord came down,

And glory shone around. And glory shone around.

Fear not! said he, for mighty dread

Had seized their troubled minds,

Glad tidings of great joy I bring,

To you and all mankind. To you and all mankind.

To you, in David's town, this day

Is born of David's line,

The Saviour, who is Christ the Lord,

And this shall be the sign: And this shall be the sign:

The heavenly Babe you there shall find

To human view displayed,

All meanly wrapped in swathing bands,

And in a manger laid. And in a manger laid.

All glory be to God on high,

And on the earth be peace.

Good will henceforth from heaven to man,

Begin and never cease! Begin and never cease!

14. MARY'S BOY CHILD

Long time ago in Bethlehem,

So the Holy Bible says,

Mary's boy child, Jesus Christ,

Was born on Christmas Day.

Hark, now hear the angels sing,

A new King born today.

And man will live for evermore

Because of Christmas Day.

While shepherds watched their flocks by night,

They saw a bright new shining star.

They could heard a choir sing,

and the Music came from afar.

Hark, now hear the angels sing,

A new King born today.

And man will live forevermore

Because of Christmas Day.

Trumpets sound and angels sing,

A new King born today.

And man will live for evermore

Because of Christmas Day.

15. FELIZ NAVIDAD

16.

Feliz Navidad
Feliz Navidad
Feliz Navidad
Prospero Año y Felicidad.

Feliz Navidad
Feliz Navidad
Feliz Navidad
Prospero Año y Felicidad.

I want to wish you a Merry Christmas
I want to wish you a Merry Christmas
I want to wish you a Merry Christmas
From the bottom of my heart.

17. I SAW THREE SHIPS

I saw three ships come sailing in

On Christmas day, on Christmas day.

I saw three ships come sailing in

On Christmas day in the morning.

And what was in those ships all three,

On Christmas day, on Christmas day?

And what was in those ships all three,

On Christmas day in the morning?

The Virgin Mary and Christ were there,

On Christmas day, on Christmas day.

The Virgin Mary and Christ were there,

On Christmas day, on Christmas day.

Pray whither sailed those ships all three,

On Christmas day, on Christmas day?

Pray whither sailed those ships all three,

On Christmas day in the morning?

O they sailed into Bethlehem,

On Christmas day, on Christmas day,

O they sailed into Bethlehem,

On Christmas day in the morning.

And all the bells on earth shall ring,

On Christmas day, on Christmas day.

And all the bells on earth shall ring,

On Christmas day in the morning.

And all the Angels in Heaven shall sing,

On Christmas day, on Christmas day.

And all the Angels in Heaven shall sing,

On Christmas day in the morning.

And all the Souls on Earth shall sing,

On Christmas day, on Christmas day.

And all the Souls on Earth shall sing,

On Christmas day in the morning.

Then let us all rejoice amen,

On Christmas day, on Christmas day.

Then let us all rejoice amen,

On Christmas day in the morning. [Alternate third verse]

18. O LITTLE TOWN OF BETHLEHEM              

O little town of Bethlehem,

how still we see thee lie.

Above the 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.

For Christ is born of Mary,

and gathered all above,

While mortals sleep, the angels keep

their watch of wondering love.

O morning stars,

together proclaim the holy birth.

And praises sing to God the King,

and peace to men on earth.

How silently, how silently,

the wondrous Gift is giv'n.

So God imparts to human hearts

the blessings of his heav'n.

No ear may hear His coming,

but in this world of sin,

Where meek souls will receive Him still,

the dear Christ enters in.

O holy Child of Bethlehem,

descend to us we pray.

Cast out our sin and enter in,

be born in us today.

We hear the Christmas angels

the great glad tidings tell;

O come to us, abide with us,

our Lord Emanuel.

19. RUDOLPH THE RED-NOSED REINDEER

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,

had a very shiny nose,

And if you ever saw it,

you would even say it glows.

All of the other reindeer,

used to laugh and call him names;

They never let poor Rudolph join in any reindeer games.

Then one foggy, Christmas eve,

Santa came to say,

Rudolph, with your nose so bright,

won't you guide my sleigh tonight?

Then how the reindeer loved him,

as they shouted out with glee,

Rudolph the red-nose reindeer,

you'll go down in history.

20.THE FIRST NOEL

The first Noel the angels 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.

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.

And by the light of that same star

Three Wise men came from country far.

To seek for a King was their intent,

And to follow the star wherever it went.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel.

Born is the King of Israel.

This star drew nigh to the northwest

O'er Bethlehem it took its rest,

And there it did both stop and stay,

Right over the place where Jesus lay.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel.

Born is the King of Israel.

Then entered in those Wise men three, Fell reverently upon their knee,

And offered there in His presence

Their gold, and myrrh, and frankincense.

Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel. Born is the King of Israel.
