"Hark! Songs for Christmas - Vol. II" is an album of Christmas related songs and carols recorded by independent musician Sufjan Stevens in 2002. It seems that the album was never officially released but rather given away to friends and family during Christmastime. It was preceded by "Noel! Songs for Christmas - Vol. I" in 2001 and followed by "Ding! Dong! Songs for Christmas - Vol. III" in 2003.
This CD is available as part of the box set Songs for Christmas released by Asthmatic Kitty Records in 2006.

Notes and trivia
* "Angels We Have Heard on High" and "Hark! the Herald Angels Sing!" are short instrumentals played on the vibraphone.
* Stevens slightly changed the titles of several of the songs, such as putting an extra exclamation point at the end of "Hark! the Herald Angels Sing" and adding "Anyway?" to the end of "What Child Is This?". However, the recordings of the songs remain lyrically and musically the same as the traditional versions.
