The Christmas Shoes - New Song
It was almost Christmas time; there I stood in another line
Trying to buy that last gift or two, Im really in the
Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a, little boy waiting anxiously
Pacing round like little boys do and in his hands he held a, pair of shoes
And his clothes were worn and old; he was dirty from head to toe
But when it came his time to pay, I couldnt believe what I heard him say
Chorus
Sir I wanna buy these shoes, for my mama please
Its Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry sir, daddy says theres not much time
You see, shes been sick for quite a while and I, know these shoes will make her smile
And I, wanted her to look beautiful if mama meets Jesus tonight
They counted pennies for what seemed like years, then the cashier said son theres not enough here,
He searched his pockets franticly, then he turned and he looked at me
He said, mama made Christmas good at our house, though most years she just did without
Tell me sir what am I gonna do, somehow Ive got to buy her these Christmas shoes
So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out
And Ill never forget the look on his face when he said, mamas gonna look so great
Chorus
Sir I wanna buy these shoes for my mama please
Its Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry sir, daddy says theres not much time
You see, shes been sick for quite a while and I, know these shoes will make smile
And I, want her to look beautiful if mama meets Jesus tonight
I knew I caught a glimpse of heavens love as he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had sent that little boy to remind me, what Christmas is all about
Chorus
Sir I wanna buy these shoes, for my momma please
Its Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry sir, daddy says theres not much time
You see, shes been sick for quite a while and I, know these shoes will make her smile
And I, wanted her to look beautiful if mama meets Jesus tonight
I wanted her to look beautiful if mama meets Jesus tonight
