Christmas Spirit is a Christmas-themed album by Donna Summer, released in 1994. Summer's Gospel music background is very evident on this album which consists of traditional and well-known Christmas songs and carols, as well as new original songs and a cover of Amy Grant's "Breath of Heaven (Mary's Song)".

Production credit for the album was given to Michael Omartian, who had produced for Summer in the 1980s. He is also credited as writing "Christmas Is Here" and "Lamb of God" alongside Summer, and "Christmas Spirit" alongside Summer and her husband Bruce Sudano. Traditional carols "O Come All Ye Faithful," "What Child Is This," "Do You Hear What I Hear?," "Joy To The World" and "O Holy Night" are featured alongside "White Christmas", "The Christmas Song" and "I'll Be Home For Christmas," all of which are famous Christmas songs.
