Yeah, Mary Knew!

Pentatonix Lyrics 
(https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/pentatonix/marydidyouknow.html)
 
Mary, Did You Know?


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've 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 the storm with his hand?
Did you know that your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little baby, you kiss the face of God.

Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know?..
Mary, did you know? 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!

Mary, did you know that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know that your baby boy would one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?
That sleeping child you're holding is the great I am.

Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know? Mary, did you know?..
Mary, did you know?

Why must we Catholics be forced to endure this blasphemous seasonal song during Mass? I can at least turn off the radio or turn away from the radio station when it comes on, but how do I turn off the Mass?
 
I heard it (again) yesterday, at Mass - during Communion - no less! 

Any Catholic who likes this song does not understand basic Catholic theology, or the role of Mary the Mother of God in Salvation history. Or their Bible. Or the heretical Protestant origins of the song. 
 
Yes, Mary knew.

For Catholics interested in learning why the song is heretical and blasphemous, please read this article at the Catholic Thing: https://www.thecatholicthing.org/2017/12/07/mary-did-you-know-and-the-immaculate-conception/
 
For a more pointed, anti-Protestant, slant on the song, watch this video or read the transcript from Church Militant: https://www.churchmilitant.com/video/episode/mary-did-you-know
 
I could list another dozen or so Catholic sites condemning the song, but I hope this dead horse has been beaten enough.
 
I have yet to read one review of the song/lyrics by any Catholic priest where they do not condemn it. 
 
Let's make 2019 the last year that we will be subjected to this heretical and blasphemous song inside our churches!
