Mary, did you know that your baby boy Will one day 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 a storm with His hand? Did you know that your baby boy Has walked where angels trod? When you kissed your little baby You've kissed the face of God The blind will see, the deaf will hear And 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'
