Rapture is an album by American pop singer Johnny Mathis that was released in the fall of 1962 by Columbia Records and returned him to singing a full line-up of the sort of ballads that he was known for.

The album made its first appearance on Billboard magazine's album chart in the October 27, 1962, issue and reached number 12 during its 37 weeks there.

The first compact disc release of the album came on June 9, 2009, when it was issued as disc one of a two-CD set that also included his 1963 offering Romantically.

Billboard captured the feel of the album in their review. "'Velvety' is a good one-word description of this new album by Mathis, who's given lush musical settings by Don Costa's ork." They also singled out certain tracks. "The material is all in a softly romantic vein, with 'My Darling, My Darling', 'Stars Fell on Alabama', and 'Stella by Starlight' among the best." The review also noted that a small reproduction of the cover painting was included with the LP as a bonus.
