Welcome!  Hymns have been and continue to be a real source of inspiration to me.  My desire in this blog is to share special hymns with my readers hoping that the words will minister to them, especially in times of great personal need.  If one of these hymns ministers to you, please take time to leave a comment so that I know that my blog is helping others as much as it helps me. Sometimes I will also provide a link where you can go to hear the hymn played.  So, please join me here each week and sing along as we praise God together.

MARY DID YOU KNOW?

I love the carols of Christmas.  I enjoy December when many of the radio stations feature this great music.  And, I do have some special favorites.  One of those is a recently written carol which asks questions about what Mary really knew about her special Son.  I've heard many folks react to this question, but I'm still not sure.  Did she really comprehend that the child that she was carrying would provide salvation to this world?  Did she know that He would be her Savior?  It is interesting to contemplate what she knew.  But no matter what, Her son was the Son of God who would change the world.  Contemplate the impact of the Son and thank God the Father as you sing this hymn.

Mary, did you know
That your baby boy
Would someday 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 the storm with his hand?
Did you know that your baby boy 
Has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little baby
You've kissed the face of God.
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?
This sleeping child you're holding
Is the Great I Am 

Listen to it here.    LISTEN
