Musical Advent Calendar, Day 10: Christmas Lullaby

My Mission: One holiday-themed, non-carol song every day between now & Christmas. It's my own version of an Advent calendar. I may succeed, I may fail, but there will at least be some good music posted ... music you won't hear at the mall, that hopefully won't make you end up looking like him. ----->

Day 10: "Christmas Lullaby" from Songs For a New World. (Performed July 2010, Lauren Tompkins, voice, yours truly on piano. I'm partly including this so Sam has more ammunition to talk about my alleged Jason Robert Brown obsession.)

(You can see previous songs here. Email me or comment below if you have a tune suggestion!)
