Christmas Like A Lullaby

Christmas like a lullaby steals across the land A breeze upon the water, rainfall upon the sand We celebrate a baby born from spirit into man And Christmas like a lullaby steals across the land It's morning in Australia in fact it's Christmas Day And Colorado never seemed so very far away Back where night has fallen and it's still Christmas Eve And snow is on the mountains where I always hate to leave Here I am down under with a brand new family And Christmas bells are ringing and there's presents 'neath the tree I know that it's been said before and now I know it's true That home is where the heart is and Christmas lives there too On this morning Peace On Earth is still our fervent prayer And I can hear it being whispered softly everywhere And guns are called to silence and anger called to still And brotherhood and sisterhood surrounded by goodwill Christmas like a lullaby steals across the land A breeze upon the water, rainfall upon the sand We celebrate a baby born from spirit into man And Christmas like a lullaby steals across the land --- Christmas Like a Lullaby - John Denver
