Mary, Did You Know?
Pentatonix's a cappella rendition of 'Mary, Did You Know?' reflects on the miraculous identity of Jesus as the Messiah. The song poses rhetorical questions to Mary, highlighting Jesus' divine nature and his future works: walking on water, healing the blind and deaf, raising the dead, and ruling the nations. It emphasizes that the baby she holds is the Creator and the 'great I am.' The lyrics draw from biblical prophecies and miracles, celebrating the incarnation and the salvation Jesus brings. The song is a Christmas classic that invites listeners to marvel at the mystery of God becoming human.
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'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 kiss the face of God.
Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know?..
Mary, did you know? 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?..
Mary, did you know?
