"A Jolly Christmas from Frank Sinatra" is a Christmas album by American singer Frank Sinatra, originally released by Capitol Records in 1957.

This was Sinatra's first full-length Christmas album. It features the Ralph Brewer Singers along with an orchestra conducted by Gordon Jenkins.

Capitol reissued the album in 1963 with different cover art and a new title, "The Sinatra Christmas Album", a title which also featured on the album's initial 1987 compact disc pressing. The original title and cover were eventually restored for subsequent pressings. In 2001, the album art was altered from its 1957 version.
