‘Mary, Did You Know?’ Wynonna Judd Christmas Performance - Christian Music Videos

A country music legend, Wynonna Judd, turned in a beautifully stunning performance of a classic Christmas tune, “Mary, Did You Know?”

There are hundreds of Christmas songs that become mighty repetitive and worn out by the time Christmas Day rolls around every year. From secular to religious, those songs cover a variety of topics, subjects and figures. Several tunes mention an old and jolly overweight man who dresses up in red and then spends Christmas Eve sneaking into houses. Other songs talk about reindeer, the frightful weather and chestnuts cooking atop an open flame. 

However, few mention Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ, the woman who gave birth to the Son of God in a lowly manger all those years ago. In a clip posted on YouTube, Wynonna delivers an outstanding performance of “Mary, Did You Know?”

The song is basically a series of questions, with the singer asking Mary what she knew and when. The track poses the questions, asking if Mary understood the magnitude of that birth and her child. Did she know her baby boy would grow up to change the world, saving man from his sins?

“Did you know that your baby boy
Has come to make you new?
This child that you delivered, will soon deliver you”

Mary was a young woman entrusted with a tremendous amount of responsibility. God even sent one of His angels to inform Mary about the massive, world-changing task ahead of her. While an angel of God told her about her yet-to-be-born child, there is no way she could have ever fully understood, at that moment, what His birth would mean for all of humanity. 

“Mary, Did You Know?” is a beautifully written song that emphasizes the importance of and the world-altering mission of the baby boy born to a virgin in a manger by asking Mary several pointed and direct questions. 

Luke 1:38 “And Mary said, ‘Behold, the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.”
