In today’s mass, we sang a beautiful Christmas song, “Mary did you know ?” The version I like the best is by Clay Aiken - it is simply beautiful and worth listening to all year round.
Undoubtedly, Jesus is great, but one thing is certain: even if her baby boy couldn't make the blind see, make the deaf hear, make the dead live again, make the lame leap, make the dumb speak, Mary would have still loved him. It wouldn’t make a difference, him being divine or mortal.
Mary did you know by Clay Aiken
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will one day walk on water?
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
That your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?
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?
And when you kiss your little boy
You've kissed the face of God
Mary, did you know?
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?
Did you know
That your baby boy will one day rules 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.
Jan 1st is the Day of Mother Mary.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is but there was no special celebrations or emphasis in the mass. Last week the mass was back to normal and no more trilingual (Mandarin) service, so I behave well and did not embarrass my sons. LOL.
ReplyDeleteBTW, did you sing the same song in the mass ?
ReplyDeleteMaybe the God heard your voice! ha-ha!!
ReplyDeleteWe were also no special celebration on the Mass. But Father just told us it was the Day of Mother Mary and sang some songs about Mother Mary.
We didn't sing the same song and all were the Cantonese songs.
