Christmas, Like A Lullaby

This song was first released on the christmas, like a lullaby album. it is the only album it has been released on.





Christmas like a lullaby steals across the land

A breeze upon the waters, rainfall on 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 in the mountains that i always hate to leave



But here i am down under with a brand new family

Christmas bells are ringing

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

And on this morning peace on earth

Is still your fervent prayer

And i can feel it being

Whispered softly everywhere



And guns are 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 waters, rainfall on the sand

We celebrate a baby born from spirit into man

And christmas like a lullaby steals across the land
