Mary Did You Know? - CeeLo Green

I have heard this song countless times over the years, but when CeeLo came out with his cover of Mary Did You Know? in 2012, I didn't care who else sang it again.  This is such a perfect version of the song and I couldn't have been more pleased with it.  The video below is a little strange, but I wanted to link to the one from his YouTube channel.  (It looked like a fire hazard to me)

Enjoy!



Honorable mention would have to be Pentatonix's version that came out on the That's Christmas To Me album.

Again, Enjoy!


Lyrics


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 the blind man?
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy would calm the storm with his hand?
Did you know
That your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
And when you kissed your little baby
You kissed the face of God
Oh, 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 heavens perfect lamb?
And this sleeping child you're holding
Is the great I Am

Songwriters
LOWRY, MARK/GREENE, BUDDY
