Mary Did You Know Is today's carol. It's a beautiful song by Mark Lowry that declares the Christmas story from a unique perspective. Many versions of this song have been recorded, but my favorite is this original Mark Lowry version
Mary did you know that your baby boy will one day walk on water?
Mary did you know that your baby boy will save our sons and daughters?
Did you know that your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you've 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 a storm with his hand?
Did you know that your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
And when you kiss your little baby, you have kissed the face of God.
The blind will see, the deaf will hear and 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?
This sleeping child you're holding is the great I am.
The Nativity is a standard decoration in many homes, especially for believers of the one true God. The thought has occurred to me that we should make the Nativity a part of our everyday decorations as a daily reminder of God's gift to us.
