Christmas, Like a Lullaby

Christmas, Like a Lullaby is the twenty-third studio album and second Christmas album by American singer-songwriter John Denver released in December 1990.

This was Denver's first solo Christmas album of music since 1975's Rocky Mountain Christmas. He also released the collaborative Christmas album in 1979 with The Muppets.

The only original track was the title track "Christmas Like A Lullaby" written by Denver. The rest were Christmas carols and standards and two Tom Paxton songs, "The Children Of Bethlehem" and "Marvelous Toy".
