MARY, DID YOU KNOW (Mark Lowry/Lee Greene) 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 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 And when you kiss your little baby You've 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 Oh, 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 one nation Did you know that your baby boy Is heaven's perfect lamb This sleeping child you're holding Is the great "I am" ...Oh, Mary did you know Published by Word, Inc.

GROWN-UP CHRISTMAS LIST (David Foster/Linda Thompson) Do you remember me? I sat upon your knee I wrote to you with childhood fantasies Well I'm all grown up now Can you still help somehow? I'm not a child, but my heart still can dream So here's my lifelong wish My grown-up Christmas list Not for myself, but for a world in need No more lives torn apart That wars would never start And time would heal all hearts Every man would have a friend That right would always win And love would never end This is my grown-up Christmas list What is the illusion called "The innocence of youth"? Maybe only in that blind belief can we ever find the truth No more lives torn apart That wars would never start And time would heal all hearts Every man would have a friend That right would always win And love would never end This is my grown-up Christmas list This is my only lifelong wish This is my grown-up Christmas list Published by Air Bear/Peer Music, Ltd.

EVEN SANTA FELL IN LOVE (Jim Brickman/Billy Mann) He brushes back his silver hair And checks to see if she is standing there After years of traveling around With the reindeer hooves above the ground Never made the missus run away Remembering the night they met Figure skating she played hard to get In his red suit he slid past Who could resist that charming laugh? He said he would teach her how to fly Even Santa fell in love Everybody needs someone to come home to After the longest day Even Santa fell in love And she's the only one he wants to come back to When the toys are put away Even on Christmas Day She sees his eyes are all aglow Anticipating children laughing in the snow And with just his Christmas touch Under mistletoe before the rush Mrs. Kringle feels the tingle in her heart Even Santa fell in love Everybody needs someone to come home to After the longest day Even Santa fell in love And she's the only one he wants to come back to When the toys are put away Even on Christmas Day Even Santa fell in love Everybody needs someone to come home to After the longest day Even Santa fell in love And she's the only one he wants to come back to When the toys are put away Even on Christmas Day Even on Christmas Day Published by BMG Music Publishing Ltd./Notation Music [Top]
