The Kenny Rogers version of “Mary Did You Know” was popular 30 years ago. It is also lovely.
I far prefer it over Aiken, because all I can see of the man is his male “partner” and baby, the opposite of the mother-father family even the divinely created Jesus was raised in.

The first release was in 1991.

Down through the years my favorite version has been the one by Mark Lowry.

I like the whole song, including this:

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.

It's accurate.

I like the Pentatonix version as well, though it carries the same problem as the Aiken version in that at least a couple of members of Pentatonix are poufters. :0
