When a Child is Born - Johnny Mathis

I am actually a traditionalist at heart. When a Child is Born is one of the most lovely, hopeful songs around and Johnny Mathis' version is sure to soften even the hardest of hearts at Christmas time. Even though the lyrics don't specifically mention Christmas, there are many references which allude to the hope, promise and expectation that surrounds the birth of a child, and one in particular. Simply beautiful.
