Mary, Did You Know?

Written by: Mark Lowry

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;
and this child that you delivered
will soon deliver you?

Mary, did you know that your baby boy
would give sight to a blind man?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
would calm a storm with his hand?
Did you know that your baby boy
has walked where angels trod?
And, when you kissed your little baby
you've kissed the face of God?
Oh, Mary, did you know?
Oh, Mary, did you know?


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.


Oh, Mary, did you know?
that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy
would one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy
was Heaven's perfect Lamb?
And, the sleeping child you're
holding is the great I Am?


Oh, Mary
Mary, Did you know ?
Mary, Did you know ?

What I Want for Christmas

What do I want for Christmas, the words just echo on.
For no one wants to know the answer to that one,
For the gift, I want I know no one can afford,
Oh, you'll have to travel far, all the way to heaven's door.

As you open the gates of gold, you'll find my baby there,
He'll have a little teardrop given with such care.
Oh won't you wrap him up and tie him with a bow,
Then send him back to mommy way down here below.


Oh don't you worry how much he has grown,
For my love for him in written in stone.
That love is one that will not die through out time,
Because he is a sweet little angel of mine.


Many things will be given to loved ones that are still here,
And lots of them will be given with great love and care,
But, oh my friend, the only gift worth given this year,
Is one that brings such joy that it even brings a tear.

Written for all Mommies missing their Baby.

Merry Christmas Darling

Recorded by Karen Carpenter

Greeting cards have all been sent
The Christmas rush is through
But I still have one more wish to make
A special one for you

Merry Christmas Darling
We're apart that's true
But I can dream and in my dreams
I'm Christmas-ing with you


Holidays are joyful
There's always something new
But every day's a holiday
When I'm near to you


The lights on my tree
I wish you could see
I wish it every day


The logs on the fire
fill me with desire
To see you and to say


That I wish you a merry Christmas
Happy New Year, too


I've just one wish
on this Christmas Eve
I wish I were with you
I wish I were with you
