"Mary Did You../The King Is.." By The Gaither Vocal Band

[TheDENDEN501]

What a beautiful Godly song, THANK YOU FATHER that you inspired Mark and Buddy Greene to put it together.

[sumerlynn82]

I dont know how Micheal English made this song so popular when this is obviously the best version!

[Neena275]

boy! i love this song when mark sings



[Retslu]

Praise God, Mark, David and Guy are using their tremendous talents to give Praise to God and not in the secular marketplace.

[TheShellsong]

bless them that brought tears to my eyes

[TheDaveagle]

Praise The Lord!! The Lyrics, The tune.... Brilliant!!!! Amazing!!!! Its like Listening to the New Testament through a song!!!!!! Thank you Mark! Gaither Vocal Band you guys are amazing!!!

[wycowboy63]

[want2worship]

very blessed and anoited song.

[robinanders]

Thank you for all of your recordings of the gaithers, guy, mark, david. I love them all. I saw mark in a 200 person concert right after he finished this song, and we were one of the first groups to hear it. No doubt it would be one of the best Christmas songs ever written. He said these were questions he had and would have asked Mary if alive during the day.?

[LFaxon19]

AMEN!!!!

[ldbowersock]

The father of my three children and I saw the grandparents of these young men perform 45 years ago and it seems that each generation of the original Gaither's just keep getting more talented and ever closer to God our Father. Christmas blessings.

[tl52]

he must be close to God for such a performance.

[bodean525600]

Mark is so very special and his voice is a gift from God. I love this song and it makes Christmas for me as much as any song now. Thanks be to God!

[woodlandrealm]

AMEN ! Can you feel the love I do,Thank you father for the LORD ! I cry every time I listen to this. !!! such a blessed song if I ever heard one.

God Bless !

[nothingfinal]

Another remarkable performance from GVB. These guys truly have a special gift and a heart for the Lord!

[bubgum00]

@StormReignSik God is not a Cult and his voice is very well blessed by him.

[TrueBlueBass4]

I just love this song, especially the harmonies at 2:00. Thanks for this song, Mark Lowry.

[Gamergal116]

I absolutely love this song, it's so simple but so powerful at the same time. <3 Mark and Guy.

[4growler]

Which video is this off of.  I would like to find it.

[bethdeesb]

@4growler I think it is Christmas: A Time of Joy, taped in Birmingham, Alabama.

[troymcentire]

The first time I heard this song and the others jumped in with him i was overwhelmed and I asked God,"wow did you hear that Lord?" and He said to me, "yes I was there" hahaha isnt that awesome?

[ladytxlove]

What a combination! The Alpha... The birth of our Lord! The Omega.... When He comes again to reign!

[3DL1]

every time i listen to this ...it ministers to me, just fabulous!!!!

[tshanley01]

one of my chrustian brothers on our praise team can really do and awsome job with marks song

[Chellzx]

Guy Penrod Reminds Me OF The Jesus Pictures I USed To See In My Little Bible Story Books.. LOL..

[atonementwHm]

@Chellzx, I have noticed that he does resemble what artists think Jesus looked like.

[minnesotaluva]

thanks Mark beautiful song . Amen to the King is coming.

[lindajhn316]

I have "followed "THE GAITHERS" on "VCR and now "DVD"! **GOD** HAD A "SPECIAL ANOINTING" FOR "BILL AND GLORIA"! "NO NUMBER" WILL EVER BE ABLE TO "COUNT" JUST HOW MANY HAVE COME TO "ACCEPT OUR **PRECIOUS LORD JESUS CHRIST**LISTENING TO THEIR SONGS! ONE DAY WE SHALL KNOW! **WORTHY OF IS THE LAMB** FOR **HIS GREAT LOVE GIFT** ::**JESUS CHRIST**!! WHERE WOULD "WE ALL BE" WITHOUT ; "OH, WHAT A SAVIOR"??

[confederateoutl]

Guy Penrod'd voice gives me goose bumps.

[Man0mania]

These songs send shivers down my back! they are so wonderful and full of love!!!

does anyone have tabs for guitar or piano on Mary Did you know?

just love it, and we're having a gathering this week, so i would really appreciate if anyone had notes for this version and sent them to me =)

[KeiyarlaDraga]

No one can sing this song like Mark Lowry can.

[nitemarpresley1835]

it does my heart and soul so much good to hear this . just when I think I can't go on any longer and am disheartened about the state of things as they are now in these troubled times it reminds me that GOD is still in charge and whatever his plan is as for me and mine I'll trust in him and keep my eyes towards the sky !!

[8145551212]

Mark Lowery, thank you for this song. It is one of the most scripturally accurate and the best song about the birth of Christ from the twentieth century.

[brettt777]

Absolutely the best recording of "Mary did you know".

[tfkfan1]

It should be, he wrote it lol

[gospelx2]

Praise GOD!!!! Every tongue will confess that JESUS IS LORD OF LORDS KING OF KINGS everyone should confess NOW while there is still time!!!!!!

[radspad727]

The Holy Spirit was up you when this song was composed....how can it not touch one's heart. God Bless you for sharing God's gift to you. I am waiting for the King to come again! Amen.

[rachelle403]

Is this on a dvd that you can buy thanks for posting this song

[julipin2]

sencillamente genial

[bacanay]

right song for christmas season

thanks

toronto

[naturenut38]

What would Mary say about this song?

I think she will smile, nod and get him to sing it again...

Thank you Mark for the Song which ranks top with Amazing Grace!!

Have an Awesome and Holy Christmas!!

[andreatthos]

Gloria a Deus!! =)

[nilradanyad]

I love both songs and I thank you for posting them. I do believe that i was crying, clapping, and praising God Alighty through The King is Coming, though. what an absolutely beautiful song - and wonderfully anointed voices. Thank you, again, and may God bless you richly - for I am truly blessed by this.

[1jeg214]

Beautiful! Jesus Christ came to offer the gift of salvation for all of eternity- without end! Thank you Jesus Christ for Mark and friends that sing and live for YOU! Merry Christmas! Yes Christ will return as King of Kings and Lord of all- never forget everyone will bow and acknowledge that Jesus Christ is LORD!

[divagirl0177]

just so beautiful. thanks so much for posting this. God bless.:)

[waylo4526]

simply amazing u can feel the love of JESUS ON THIS

[quartlower]

These songs keep my hands in the air praising our almighty soon coming King

[dylona]

1:44-2:13 absolutely incredible.

[icecat20]

Has a Xmas Stationary w/ this song w/ Mark Singing it!!!

[sticks18888]

amen awesome words

[chrisinblackpool]

Really not sure where a person has to be to be able to receive these kinds of lyrics, to get this close to the heart of God, but ohhhh do I hope one day I am there.

Thank you Mark, thank you Holy Spirit

[nitemarpresley1835]

I play this video daily it fills my soul with so much joy and sends cold chills up and down my spine. I am always looking to the sky for the return of our Lord & Saviour's return and just the thought of his face is what keeps me going ." Oh Happy day ! "

[cataloger1kimberlya]

This is possibly the best Christian song ever written! Thank you, Mark Lowry!!

[TheBrooklyn09]

I'm blessed!...

[MANNING169]

The way I understand it is that Mark wrote most if not all of the words but Mark can't read music or write music so he talked with Buddy and sent him the words and told him to see what he could do with it. It's the most beautiful song I've ever heard and just think if Mark hadn't been willing to ask Buddy Green for his help no one would have ever heard it!!!

[mspottymouth]

david phelps voice is god itself!!!

[PoMilostiEvo]

what is the year this was recorded?

[KeepOurFreedoms]

You can't get better than this.

[1961Marta]

Halleluia ----- The King is coming and we shall see Him and we shall see one another.

[Christlifestyle]

This is the song of all songs. It speaks of Jesus's total mission and purpose. At the same time praises go heavenward and the redeemed of God can rejoice as it is song. Praise God, Almighty!!!!

[77777zula]

this is fantastic! wow awsome! Thanks for uploading and share ing it!

[bluewolfhowler]

I am not one to cry. However this song feels me w/ such a love for the Lord that I cannot help to cry. For once I do not mind for these are tears of pure joy. One day we will be able to fall to our knees and whorship our savior.

[frano84]

The most powerful song the have ever sung (King is comin)

[gracie5061]

that part where he says "when you kiss your baby, you've kissed the face of God". always gets me choked up!!!

[kalara24]

I agree with you

[beck7t]

I love this song more now that I am healed of OCD and really know I be with Jesus.

[jmoleary21]

the reason he has that sincerity about the song is that he is god's tool that wrote the song about the greatest story ever told.

[ilesaga]

Mark does such a wonderful job, this song is beautiful.  When they sing "The King is Coming", I just break out in goosebumps. Guy could sing anything and I would want to fall down on my knees!!! I will really miss him in GVB. He really brings something special.

[PetraKenobi]

Guy's leaving the Vocal Band? He's awesome...but I stopped listening to the GVB after Mark left. Just wasn't the same. :(

[hoover4000]

well mark is back :)

[PetraKenobi]

I'm glad Mark's back. the GVB just wasn't the same and....wasn't as funny. haha. :) I hope they make some new videos soon with Mark. ;)

[hoover4000]

i know they are set to film a new dvd with the new gvb lineup next month so we should get new footage of them soon :)

[PetraKenobi]

Mark's version of Mary Did You Know? is the only version I like. He just has a sincerity that doesn't come across in other versions.

[ibinsi1]

wonderful songs, and the piano player's excellent, too.

[ibinsi1]

without words! \o/

[gracie5061]

thanx for posting this. everytime i hear "Mary did you know", i get chills!!! awesome song!!

[tamnaya]

Hi ..Thanks for amazing song , I believe some people can hear that song and touch the heart for accept Jesus he is the Lord!!!! in the only way to eternal life.

[demothiflame]

oh, I LOVE this song! it's amazing that Mark wrote it. my favorite lines are "this child that you delivered / will soon deliver you" and "when you kiss your little baby / you've kissed the face of God"

Amen! HAllelujah!!!

[knutvedoy]

I just love Mark Lowry.

A man with so many talents, it's just incredible.

I've seen his acts with Bill many times, and when this voice appeared, I was just shocked.

Incredible...

[balsata]

Yes, the King is coming!!!!!

[Musikkjenta]

Amen!!

[s1ramsana]

beautiful song and great music

[jammies3]

From what I've read, Mark Lowry actually WROTE this song too.....

[hoover4000]

yes he did :)

[bofts]

Yes its mind boggling isnt it

[gottaloveskillet]

he and a man by the name of Buddy Greene wrote it. Can't forget Buddy, he's not very well known, but he's really good at the harmonica. If you look in some of the videos, you'll see him in the background.

[NAVYMU1RET]

@jammies3 He and Buddy Greene

[misslisa4jc]

@jammies3 He wrote it with Buddy Greene. He wrote the words and Buddy wrote the music

[abetiuc]

R.I.P Anthony Burger...

[vampire39507]

I enjoy all of these videos

[jsnzk]

"When you kiss your little baby, you kissed the face of God" So Poweful a statement -- one just can imagine Mary Kissing the "Great I AM" and all we can hope is that one day we will deserve to be in HIS present.

[LayseeGee]

Ahh, Mark has such an amazing voice, :).

As do the rest of the band.

[brettt777]

So Mark and David are back with the GVB. Thank you Jesus! But now Guy has left.... :(

[siminamolnar]

it really goes to one's soul....

[medinamedicina]

muito boa esta canção a letra condiz com a verdade

[kenniedarren]

the best

[spander30]

THE BEST ....EVER!!!!

[virayjun]

very touching..with goose pimples...

[timestandingstill]

I love this song. Great Job! Awsome! Praise the name of the Lord! Jesus. I can't deny him.

He is Worthy of ALL Praise!

[kal1kat]

What a blessing behind such a humble man

[ggauldin]

Imagine kissing the face of God!!!

[themindsbroker]

the great buddy green composed the music for this song...is awesome!

[23dunkman]

hi, do you happen to have anything by the Perry's? I've been looking for Power In Prayer for an eternity and am not having much luck!

Thanks!

[Tonibrown613]

I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THIS SONG. I've listened at least 7 times in a row. What a beautiful song... both parts.

[lricenc]

Did you know that Mark wrote this song? It's a great one, and Anthony Burger on the piano completes it. Thanks.

[ThankGodforUTube]

No, I did not know that. Wow I'm amazed.

[worsham238]

i love it

[Jamie8128]

This song is soo beautiful, It makes me cry everytime i hear it. I have watched The Gaither's on tv and this man has such an amazing voice. This couldn't have been sung any better than it is right here it is one of my favorite christmas songs! Fantastic Job and thank you for singing it>

[jammies3]

This is a TERRIFIC addition to Christmas/Christian music....I wondered where it came from...(should have known it was the Gaithers!).

If you want to hear a somewhat unknown David Archuleta song (for AI fans), "David A." sings this in a small church, and it's also very beautiful!

[danininjawarrior]

Makes me cry every freakin' time.

[johannaericas]

GREAT IS OUR LORD!!!!

[bethsavedmyworld]

Only Mark can sing "Mary Did You Know" that way.

This is, by far, my favorite performance of that song. Anthony on the piano and Guy and David doing background vocals adds the finishing touch.

[casipera]

i love it:X

[dannyfunderburkfan]

Hey Hoover, i have quite a bit of good videos. I have one of Mark singing Mary did You Know at the NQC. Can you check it out. Its in two parts because the first one is comedy.

[ovialexm]

Can anyone give more than that?

[MrFugi10]

Great! I love it!

[jamers876]

2:00 - 2:12 is the best part!

[Shaftsa]

can somebody possibly tell me if the piano accompaniment is available somewhere. Or is the pianist virtually improvising? this is such a blessing...

[sigsoundfan]

yes, that's what I want to know too!

[BeautyOnMySleeve]

being that its anthony burger, prolly improv.

[Kvivian]

I believe it is on an album - but the pianist died about 2 years ago. He was fantastic.

[braniac75]

This is a very powerful set of songs. My favorite part is the second verse of "The King is Coming" when Guy sings. It gives me goosebumps.

[mdaniels84]

Anthony Burger on the Piano. Unbelievable. Can feel it. waa

[bjchre]

What video is this one on.

[Menexpert]

The GVB was at its best when it had both Mark Lowry and David Phelps IMHO. They seemed to have the most fun and collectively with Guy and Bill had the best sound.

[rwht1989]

This was the best GVB line up! i wish David and Mark didn't leave! :(

[archiecollins]

I don't care who you are...if that doesn't fire you up, your wood is wet!

[GaDawg4ever]

AMEN!!!!!

[TresKidos]

This song is such an inspiration to me

[Vigibronx]

I discovered your videos about three or four days ago and have spent many many hours

hooked on them. I have been so blessed. Thank you

[bibliosca]

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him, shall not perish, but have eternal life.The end is near, all who love Jesus will live eternal, all who reject Jesus will perish in an eternal prison away from God and hope.

[skew0o7]

This is a Gods gifted group nd thanks a lot to Bill Gaither, his groups nd families for sharing their compassion with us. may our almighty blesses yous all. AWSOME, FANTASTIC ND AMAZING. wOW ITS GREAT!!!!

[skew0o7]

man this is a Gods gifted group . They awsum, fastascit ND amazin. Thank God for Bill Gaither, his groups nd their famlies for sharing their passion wit us.

[Bigchurchmusic]

Awesome

[seahorse1985]

Thank you for sharing this video. Beautiful song. one of my very favorites

[jojo199111]

nice

[lindajfm]

I believe this is on the "Christmas...A Time for Joy" video.

[proudlola]

it is...i have that video...good one!

[nhgranite1]

I may have missed this information;can someone please tell me on which Gaither Homecoming video this performance is? Thanks very much. It is absolutely beautiful and inspiring, and I find myself grateful in prayer.

[lindajfm]

I believe this is on the "Christmas...A Time for Joy" video.

[Monkeyshine06]

He orginaaly sung this song.. He wrote it.

[balla6924]

Wow......mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[1ladydebi]

Praise God!

[wesley2k1]

What a beautiful song & voice

[speedyjude]

What a beautiful voice Mark hasd!1 Hes' not just a comic, though he can be funny. Keep up the good singing , Mark!

[speedyjude]

Mark does an outstanding job on this song!! It's one of my favorites at Christmas.

[speedyjude]

Mark Lowry is seen as a really funny guy, but he also has a powerful, and lovely voice. While I love the new guys in the vocal band, I miss the old ones, Mark, David, and Russ.

[scottrandon]

AMEN!

[MyPassionsss]

Guy Penrod solo at the end and especially "Start to see,amazing grace" is so beautyfull!

[1004494]

This song is so amazing. I've heard it all my life, and I really never listened to the words, it was just another song to a little girl. As an adult, this is one of the most moving Christmas songs I've ever heard.

[Petraglyph777]

This message transcends christmas. Imagine Mary grieving her son's punishment, in agony, and remembering all these things.

[marianne195989]

amen, to the gvb, this is sang with such love, only mark can sing this so beautiful

[CutiePieRose]

This has become one of my favorite Christmas songs.  No matter who wrote it - composed it - sang it - it is a great song.

[bepinlv]

Mark's performance is phenomenal, but The King is Coming performance is very pedestrian

[jsrcamp]

mark wrote this version and then anthony bugare wrot the music to it i love this one. All the others just copied it

[hoover4000]

anthony burger didn't write the music, buddy greene did

[julessix]

Actually the music was written by Mark Lowry and Buddy Greene. This arrangement may have been written by Anthony.

[hoover4000]

mark didn't have anything to do with the music, just the words to the song. he said that if you cant read music you have no business writing it lol. But yeah, mark and buddy are the original writers of the song

[jsrcamp]

i meant to say buddy green but got the name wrong sorry about that

[kingLordJesus]

Awesome!!!!!!!!

[rickyfan3956]

YES! AMEN! HURRY, LORD JESUS!

[marianne195989]

this song i hear it almost every day it,s so touching

[mundymanor]

This video is the first time I'd even heard of the song, and I have been well acquainted with Mark through KCYFC all through the 80's. How embarrassing!

I think I've listened to this, like, 89 times in a row!

[hightenor687]

I think a lot of times I overlook Mark's vocal abilities because I see him as a comedian; but hearing him sing this is such a treat because of the wonderful voice God has blessed him with!
