This week, you’ll hear a replay of the podcast Andy hosted with Mark Lowry and Buddy Greene, writers of the innumerably recorded (literally…we can’t even find how many times it’s been covered) Christmas classic, “Mary, Did You Know?”
Tune in to hear Mark discuss writing the lyrics, how he thought it was just a poem, the questions he has for Mary that didn’t make the song, and how Buddy added the music years later. (Did you know there was once an entirely different melody?)
You’ll also hear Buddy and Mark reveal their favorite versions of the song, a few favorite childhood Christmas memories, why the song is so relatable—plus Mark’s hilarious encounter with a group of people that weren’t too happy with how he explained the song.
