I listen to this absolutely stunning version sung by Mark Lowry with backing of Voctave all the time no matter the time of year, day or hour: ua-cam.com/video/uaRpeMT1tjQ/v-deo.html
In 2015 on Christmas night at around 10:45 pm I took up my relationship with God while listening to this song. I haven't stopped searching for more of God. He is my reason!
God's Holy Spirit moves in mysterious ways, especially in hymns & songs! That's why hymns are SACRED! Pray 🙏 before listening & 🎶 singing...and you will have a Mary experience!❤Never question God's Holy Spirit who wrote the Psalms of shepherd boy David!❤Pick a Psalm and sing it to this tune! God helps those who recognize their need & respond to HIS calling! As I accompanied our youth team, I asked God to make Shine Jesus Shine reverent on the piano. He literally took hold of my arms & hands to play those keys in reverence...as simultaneous thunder sounded with loud rain showers, shaking the front of the church! GOD hears & cares! HE sings & inspires music 🎶 listen with heart & soul ❤ connect with God through music 🎶 GIVE Him your undivided attention & reverence ❤ God knows what we need...Mary didn't know everything but her heart was willing to listen & learn ❤ Aren't we glad that Buddy & Mark listened?! 😅
We sang this song in a concert one time, & I was fine during all the rehearsals, but when it came concert time, I couldn't sing it.. all I could do is cry! WHAT A SONG! "This child that you delivered, will soon deliver you!" "When you kiss your little baby you kiss the face of God!" "That sleeping child you're holding is the great, I AM!" Three of the best lyrics! Tugged at this Mama's heart strings to the point of being speechless with tears & chills! What a wonderful, blessed gift God gave to you, Mark, & you've blessed SO MANY of us with it in return❣
I used to sing in churches and people would ask how did I get thru a particularly touching song without crying. I had concluded that I had to "not think" about the words as I sang otherwise the unspeakable grace of God would have me blithering in a puddle and my vocal chords would sproing. 😂
Mark Lowry your song touches my heart so deeply, nobody can sing it the way you do, but the tenderness, compassion in the song only you can sing it that way. Thank you and God bless RSA.
I love that song Mary Did You Know I like the way Mark Lowry sings the song I know there's other singers that sings it no one sings it like Mark Lowry❤
hail mary full of grace, the lord is with thee. blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, jesus. holy mary mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at hour of our death, amen.
The first time I heard it, I was driving to work. I thought it was a lovely song, and enjoy the lyrics but at the end I started crying and nearly drove off the road. He is the Great "I AM!' nothing can top that.
Mark dont put your talent down i have met you in person what a Great Christian Man Of God Comedian , and Songwriter and Communicator you are right up at the top
I think the good Lord above for you Mart I’ve laughed to many of your jokes and I’ve cried with this song Mary do you know and I praise the Lord when you’re saying, God has used you my brother, and he still using you until he takes you home. Thank you
My favorite version is the one Mark sang with Voctave. It's stupendous! Amazing vocally. It's an amazing testimonial because it's sung tenderly, lovingly.
This is my favorite Christmas song. It made me cry the first time I heard it, and it still does. Thank you so much for writing this song. What a blessing.
Oh my gosh that man is so humble and has every right not to be. That is a beautiful song. He also gave credit where it was due with the music behind it. He is also so funny. You sir truly have left a beautiful legacy in this world not just with a song but by being an example of character traits that God has asked of us. Kirk thank you for interviewing him it definitely was directed by God to do so.
Mark’s “Just Whenever” goes live “just whenever he feels like it” and it is so amazing to participate with!! He is such a blessing in my life!! I try to catch every live but if I can’t make it, I can watch the replay! At age 69 I grew up singing hymns in church & it’s unbelievable how many I remember not only the tune but also the words for probably well over 50 hymns! I also love Contemporary Christian Worship music too because I was young enough still during the beginnings of worship music in Southern California at Calvary Church Costa to be part of that as well. God has always used music in my life to reach my heart for Him!! I’m so grateful to Mark Lowry for all he has done through his channel!! ❤😊❤
This touching song makes me cry each and every time! Oh the joy of it all!!! Our son left us years ago and we feel that pain and feel that void each and every single solitary day. Music heals us. Our son tormented us almost daily with his dyed hair, and he pierced his ear (the gay one) and then he married a man from a sh*t hole Country and adopted 3 oprhans out of the gutters. Freedome is our song!
I love you you are just such a inspiration to us and I just love that's my favorite song Mary did you know all year long and don't get to hear it enough praying for your ministry
One of my favorite Christmas songs! I think my favorite version is the one performed by Pentatonix. There's just something about it. Maybe it's because it's a capella, but it gets me every time. I always have to rewind the bridge several times when I'm driving in my car listening to it. "The blind will see, the deaf will hear, the dead will live again..." So powerful, and all the harmonies really elevate it to another level. But it really doesn't matter who sings the song, because it's powerful on it's own. It's really one of those once in a lifetime songs.
Mark, I have loved this song, like so many others, since the first time I heard it. As a vocalist, I could see the possible impact of hearts and minds when people hear this song. I have also performed it 2 or 3 times and people were stunned by the words. Kirk I have lots of love and respect for you as well. You have enetertained me, and blessed me over the years. BTW Mark, You don' know me but you know My Mother-in-law. She used to sing with your Mama and she even babysat you lol. Miss Dean said you were just as crazy as a youngster as you are now LOL! God Bless You Sir!
I listen to this song all the time by Clay Aikens! The words to this song are the most beautiful words I have ever heard. I say it all the time! Mark, the Lord gave these words to you and I'm so glad He did! Beautiful! God bless you!❤
The questions are similar to what I've wondered. Did Jesus ever play a prank? Did He skin His knees? Play ring around the rosies?? Did musical instruments start playing when He entered a room? I think He loved the children because He remembered being one. So many thoughts. Wonderful song!
I have always loved this song, from the first time I heard it. I have often thought it would be a great song to share for Mother's Day. I recently had my women's group to my home for a Christmas brunch. I used this song as part of our devotional. In preparing for this, I got a lot of great info from Rick Renner's series- "Christmas : The Rest of the Story." He did one whole episode on Mary. I shared the video of a "younger" Mark Lowry (LOL) singing it with the Gather Band. It is so powerful. You could feel The Holy Spirit through the screen. I finished with the version of the song done by the people who produced The Bible series that was shown a few years ago on TV. It showed Mary as she was there from the beginning of Jesus' life to the crucifixion and beyond. Our question was, "Are we willing to lay down our own lives to serve the Lord as Mary was willing to do?"
I’ve heard others sing Mary Did You Know. They were very good. But I believe there’s No one can sing this song more beautiful than Mark Lowry. The Lord bless him with these beautiful words of our Jesus who came and died and rose again. God has Truly Blessed Mark ✝️❤️❤️
The first time I heard "Mary, Did You Know?", it was on the radio in 2005....sung by Wynonna Judd & Kenny Rogers.....and I burst into tears. My daughter was only 8 at the time and didn't understand why I was so distraught. EVERY time I hear it, no matter who is singing it, I cry. Reading so many comments about this beautiful song bringing others to tears makes me feel better! My heart breaks when I think of young Mary, holding her beautiful baby....and I have to wonder: how much DID she know? God bless Mark Lowry!
I wrote similar thought in a poem 34 years ago. As I joyously held my infant son in my arms, in the best of conditions. Made me wonder how Mary must have felt to hold a King to keep him warm.
Mary Did You Know still amazes me every time I hear it.When you kiss your little baby you've kissed the face of God!! Amazing absolutely mind blowing truth!!!
"Only my Father and John Hagee know!!" That was priceless!! I never really thought about the song in the sense of the narrative. I listen to the words, and believe they are totally accurate, but as a sit-down chat with the mother of the Creator of the universe......how beautifully overwhelming!!!
I have a recording of 'Mary' and I cry everytime I hear it. My choir sang this song during the service and I cried like a baby. Thank you for the lyrics and the music fits beautifully. Merry Christmas ❤️
Thank you. I needed this video. My husband's been after me to put my music on Facebook times other than church services when I have no control of the recording. I've been scared to take that leap of faith because I'm not in a good headspace to accept the negative with the positive. I also haven't taken that step because I'm playing music out of the hymnals....so it's not my own original music I came up with...unless you count any add ins I put in (don't want no legal trouble)
Love this song. Mary Did You Know ❤ Love Mark Lowry for writing it. He truly loves to talk about Our Lord Jesus. And spreading the love of Jesus Everywhere. GodBless Mark for listening to Our Jesus Christ. ❤❤❤❤
I remember when Mark first told this story so many years ago and have passed it on to many friends and others that love this God inspired song---it is definitely a song that is near and dear to all who have any feeling for Jesus. Buddy Green is an amazing musician and song writer---got to love him and his harmonica!!!!
I have said this on other posts with the song that it is a beautiful worship song and should be sung year round, not just at Christmas.
I fully agree 👍
Our church did it at Easter one year
Amen we will sing this song in our worship this Sunday.
I have been to an Easter service, where it was song. It truly is a year around song
I listen to this absolutely stunning version sung by Mark Lowry with backing of Voctave all the time no matter the time of year, day or hour: ua-cam.com/video/uaRpeMT1tjQ/v-deo.html
When you kissed your little baby, you kissed the face of God. Gets to me every time
Same with us!
- The Kirk Cameron on TBN Team
We shared it with a friend one time and when Michael English sang that line our friend burst straight into tears . I will never forget seeing that .
I just wrote that as well, but I deleted it because you've written it 😊
@@KirkCameronTBN mine is the blind will see the deaf will hear the dead will live again
Me too! My spirit shutters with joy and tears come to my eyes.
This is my FAVORITE Christian & Christmas Song Ever!
Kirk, I think that we're going into a great revival. Until then, Merry Christmas, and God bless.

Deb, I agree. I love this powerful song. I’d love to sing it but I cry. ❤️
I used to sing in churches and people would ask how did I get thru a particularly touching song without crying. I had concluded that I had to "not think" about the words as I sang otherwise the unspeakable grace of God would have me blithering in a puddle and my vocal chords would sproing. 😂
If I could sing, that would happen to me as well! 😭
Most beautiful song ever! Makes me cry. Thank you.
I cannot sing this song in public as a solo because I can't separate myself from the words. I choke up every time! Lol ❤️
have only done it once but love hearing others sing it makes me cry
Just talking about the song brings me to tears. 🙏🏻
So very beautiful.
Same here.. I get emotional every time.
Mark Lowry is one-in-a-million hit "wonder"......... his words & music will live on for eternity!
He wrote the lyrics. Buddy Green wrote the music❤
Greatest Christmas Carol written during my lifetime.
Mark Lowry your song touches my heart so deeply, nobody can sing it the way you do, but the tenderness, compassion in the song only you can sing it that way. Thank you and God bless RSA.
Blessings from Taiwan 🇹🇼 🥳
Finally found this video to explain the story behind this MAGNIFICENT song. 💪😍👍
God bless your ministry. 😇🎁

The first time I heard it, I was driving to work. I thought it was a lovely song, and enjoy the lyrics but at the end I started crying and nearly drove off the road. He is the Great "I AM!' nothing can top that.
I'm the pastor of a church for deaf people. Several times at Christmas I've interpreted this song for them and they love it.
Mark dont put your talent down i have met you in person what a Great Christian Man Of God Comedian , and Songwriter and Communicator you are right up at the top
One of my favorite all-time songs to sing. Thank you, Mark!
Mark Lowery singing the song after explaining how he wrote it, Kathy Mattea was the first and best version I heard and ever heard.
I think Mark just hit on his next hit. MARY was the First to Carry the GOSPEL. Enjoy the interview. MERRY CHRISTMAS.
Gives me chills and tears every time I hear it. Thank you thank you. It is a beautiful testament to our Savior.
Mark sang this with Voctave. Look for it on UA-cam and watch it. There is no other cover that can match that one. Absolutely amazing.
This song makes me cry we saw Mark singing this on the Gaithers in 2000 it became my huabands favorite song this not just a Xmas song
I think the good Lord above for you Mart I’ve laughed to many of your jokes and I’ve cried with this song Mary do you know and I praise the Lord when you’re saying, God has used you my brother, and he still using you until he takes you home. Thank you

Hello Nancy
How are you doing today?
Such good questions that didn't make the song. However, the song is impeccable!
This is my favorite Christmas song. It made me cry the first time I heard it, and it still does. Thank you so much for writing this song. What a blessing.
My husband and I love listening to Mark Lowry. He shares truth in the best ways. Thank you for the 2 chats you did with him. You are both a blessing.
only Mark can sing that song with such love and compassions RSA
Great interview!
I SEEN HIM WITH HIS BROTHER already, bless his soul
I thoroughly enjoyed your guest. He's real. I didn't know you posted on here and I subscribed.
Kirk I'm so grateful you took the path that you took. God bless you.
This is absolutely 💯 my favorite of all the beautiful songs written ❤ ...about the Birth of Christ ... .
This is my favorite Christmas song of all time
MY FAVORITE SONG!!! Especially sung by Pentatonix!
I just so happened to find the song preformed by PentaTonix..it's a beautiful song. It brings tears to my eyes.
It is my number one favorite song.
My favorite version (and the first one I ever had) is by Kathy Mattea. Stunning!
Oh my gosh that man is so humble and has every right not to be. That is a beautiful song. He also gave credit where it was due with the music behind it. He is also so funny. You sir truly have left a beautiful legacy in this world not just with a song but by being an example of character traits that God has asked of us.

I sing it often all year round… and when I listen to it I always listen to you. I just found out,now, you wrote it! 😱🤣😂

Mark I love your humor. I have wondered the same thing and have so many of the same questions. Thank you for a Christmas Day smile and giggle. ❤

Blessed Virgin Mary is immaculate and Christ redeemed her before she was born. Blessed Mother pray for us.

A brilliant composition, sir! And a wonderful sense of holy humor!
So glad I heard this guys! Thanks
All time favorite Christmas song!! I cry every time!!
“Great I Am” gives me joy.
I listen to this song all the time by Clay Aikens! The words to this song are the most beautiful words I have ever heard. I say it all the time! Mark, the Lord gave these words to you and I'm so glad He did! Beautiful! God bless you!❤
Soo Biblical!!! Beautiful!!!
God bless you Mark - u crack me up! Merry Christmas!!
God bless Mr Cameron and Mr Lowry!
They have truly submitted to God and honoured God with their lives!
God bless you all!
The questions are similar to what I've wondered. Did Jesus ever play a prank? Did He skin His knees? Play ring around the rosies?? Did musical instruments start playing when He entered a room? I think He loved the children because He remembered being one. So many thoughts. Wonderful song!
Favorite song of all time! Thank you Mark, God bless you.
I love "Son of God" by Paul Cardall even more.
“What was it like to teach the Word of God to talk?” Wow!!!
Are we just going to ignore the "Bug-A-Salt" on the table behind Mark? 😂
What a great interview, great man, and truly great song!

I needed this so much today!
❤❤❤❤ I have no words it's beautiful lovely I really love it
I’ve heard others sing Mary Did You Know. They were very good. But I believe there’s No one can sing this song more beautiful than Mark Lowry. The Lord bless him with these beautiful words of our Jesus who came and died and rose again. God has Truly Blessed Mark ✝️❤️❤️
Hello Barbara
How are you doing today?
I agree
I love Mark! I love to hear Pentatonix, too. If you haven't heard them, check them out.
I long for the day when ALL True believers come to the knowledge;
"GOD IS ONE LORD."
The first time I heard "Mary, Did You Know?", it was on the radio in 2005....sung by Wynonna Judd & Kenny Rogers.....and I burst into tears. My daughter was only 8 at the time and didn't understand why I was so distraught. EVERY time I hear it, no matter who is singing it, I cry.

God bless Mark Lowry!
I love the kenny Rogers version, its beautiful
I just heard the Kenny Rogers version today. This song always brings me to tears. It is so beautiful.
I wrote similar thought in a poem 34 years ago. As I joyously held my infant son in my arms, in the best of conditions. Made me wonder how Mary must have felt to hold a King to keep him warm.
Hello Cathy
Two of my favorite men! Kirk Cameron and Mark Lowry!! Mark, that song has been in my favorites for more years than I can count!
IF YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE A ONE HIT WONDER, MARY DID YOU KNOW IS IT! AND BUDDY GREENE’S MUSIC JUST FRAMES THE WORDS SO BEAUTIFULLY.
Mary was the first one to carry the gospel. Wow!
My favourite song of all time!!!!! 😊
I met Mr. Lowery once, he's a genuinely nice person.
Mark, your fence is exactly like mine! What good taste you have, my brother. 👍🏾
Mary Did You Know still amazes me every time I hear it.When you kiss your little baby you've kissed the face of God!! Amazing absolutely mind blowing truth!!!
Hello Katherine
How are you doing today?
"Only my Father and John Hagee know!!"
That was priceless!! I never really thought about the song in the sense of the narrative. I listen to the words, and believe they are totally accurate, but as a sit-down chat with the mother of the Creator of the universe......how beautifully overwhelming!!!
I have a recording of 'Mary' and I cry everytime I hear it. My choir sang this song during the service and I cried like a baby. Thank you for the lyrics and the music fits beautifully. Merry Christmas ❤️
MERRY CHRISTMAS.
O Holy night is my favorite Christmas song and I think Mary did you know is one of my favorite worship songs.
Seeing this in 2022... Love the song, love this guy! What a twisted, lovely theologian he is. Bless you, Mark. God's definitely not done with you yet.
I love this song. I remember hearing it for the first time as a new mother and it had such meaning.
And how Mark chips in with bits of PREACHING THE GOSPEL at any opportunity , God bless you Mark
The first time I heard this song I was driving. I had to pull over and soak it in.
What a gift to give to the world!
Thank you. I needed this video. My husband's been after me to put my music on Facebook times other than church services when I have no control of the recording. I've been scared to take that leap of faith because I'm not in a good headspace to accept the negative with the positive. I also haven't taken that step because I'm playing music out of the hymnals....so it's not my own original music I came up with...unless you count any add ins I put in (don't want no legal trouble)
Thank ypu !
Nice to meet the man behind my favorite song of all times & genre's
My favorite song! I cry every time I hear it!
What a delightful sense of humor. All interesting questions I never thought about. Such a beautiful song that brings me to tears. Just heavenly.
THANK YOU MARK FOR THIS CHRISTIAN MARVELOUS SYMPHONY !!! MAY YOU WRITE MANY MANY MORE!!!
Love this song. Mary Did You Know ❤ Love Mark Lowry for writing it. He truly loves to talk about Our Lord Jesus. And spreading the love of Jesus Everywhere. GodBless Mark for listening to Our Jesus Christ. ❤❤❤❤
Mark has given the world one of the greatest songs that was ever written!
I love love love this song. My absolutely favorite.
Hello
How are you doing today?
It is a worship song of the love of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit through and through.
I remember when Mark first told this story so many years ago and have passed it on to many friends and others that love this God inspired song---it is definitely a song that is near and dear to all who have any feeling for Jesus. Buddy Green is an amazing musician and song writer---got to love him and his harmonica!!!!
Wow.....just wow.....thank you Father God for this song......
I love the song "Mary did you know"
Praise the Lord
I get so overcome hearing this I cant stop crying Love Jesus so much!
