Mary Did You Know?

This is one of my most favorite songs of the season. I made this graphic in Paint Shop Pro using the art of Yvonne Gilbert. I have added both the lyrics to the song and a YouTube video that i found. There are a great number of YouTube videos that feature this song. Some are of entertainers singing... this one is actually put together with scene from the life of Jesus. There was another that featured scenes from The Passion, which was very hard to watch. This is a bit more uplifting. If you have never heard this song before I hope it touches you as it has touches me. I never fail to cry when listening to these lyric.


"Mary Did You Know"

[Originally written by Mark Lowry and Buddy Greene]

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy would one day walk on water?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy would save our sons and daughters?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy has come to make you new?
This Child that you delivered will soon deliver you.

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy will give sight to a blind man?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy will calm the storm with His hand?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little Baby you kissed the face of God?

Mary did you know.. Ooo Ooo Ooo

The blind will see.
The deaf will hear.
The dead will live again.
The lame will leap.
The dumb will speak
The praises of The Lamb.

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy will one day rule the nations?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?
The sleeping Child you're holding is the Great, I Am.
