For today's quasi-Biblical old-time radio Christmas show we turn again to radio author Charles Tazewell. This time it's "The Lullaby of Christmas." Like "the Littlest Angel," this show was rebroadcast on many occasions.
In this story the protagonist is again a child - a boy who cannot speak and suffers mockery at the hands of others. He ends up in Bethlehem at the time of Jesus' birth and receives a supernatural gift.
You can hear "the Lullaby of Christmas" at the Old-Time Radio Researchers' library here, as it was broadcast on December 13, 1950 as an episode of the Family Theater, narrated by Roddy McDowall.
