Take a minute please!!!
I know everyone is going to think i'm crazy, but, i go to church. Today was the Christmas presentation, this song was one that was done and it just broke my heart. I hope you guys can at understand why!
It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line Tryin' to buy that last gift or two, not 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 His clothes were worn and old He was dirty from head to toe And when it came his time to pay I couldn't believe what I heard him say CHORUS: Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my mama, please It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size Could you hurry, sir, Daddy said there's not much time You see, she's been sick for quite a while And I know these shoes would make her smile And I want her to look beautiful if mama meets Jesus tonight He counted pennies for what seemed like years Then the cashier said, "Son, there's not enough here" He searched his pockets frantically, then he turned and he looked at me He said, "Mama made Christmas good at our house, Through most years she did without Tell me, sir, what am I going to do, Somehow, I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes." So I laid the money down I just had to help him out I'll never forget the look on his face When he turned to me and said, "Mama's gonna look so great." CHORUS I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's 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 |

Awwwww. So sad :(
I SWEAR I've heard that song on the radio...but I'm not sure....anyway, it's very beautiful and makes you think about what the holidays are all about, and reminds you to be fortunate for what you DO have.

I've heard this song on the radio and I have to turn it off every time! I start bawling like a baby! Beautiful song, tho.
BTW, I don't think you're crazy - I go to church too!

It makes an excellent point about compassion.
