ADVENT-DAY 10
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'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?
When you kiss your little baby, you kiss the face of God
Mary did you know?
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
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 is heaven's perfect lamb?
That sleeping child you're holding is the great I am
Mary did you know? Mary did you know?
Mary did you know?
I have several favorite Christmas songs but Mary, Did You know has to be one of my top three favorites. Mark Lowery expounded on the line from Charles Wesley's great line from Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus--born a child and yet a King!
Did you know that Isaiah sent out Jesus' birth announcement 700 years before He was born? Now who in the world would send out a birth announcement before the babe was born?
To us a child is born, to us a son is given;
and the government shall be upon his shoulder,
and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor,
Mighty God,
Everlasting Father,
Prince of Peace.
Of the increase of his government
and of peace there will be no end,
on the throne of David and over his kingdom,
to establish it and to uphold it with justice
and with righteousness
from this time forth and forevermore.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.
What a glorious announcement!
May this babe turned King rule in your heart today.
