TWO SHOES

This song I first heard, sung by the Inspirations. I liked it but Bob REALLY liked it and wanted me to sing it. I had been singing "specials" at church for a little while, so I learned it and sang it at church. I have always loved to sing and wanted, would love, to be a good singer.

I am not a good singer. I am off key and somewhat flat. 

Anyway, I sing when I feel the leading to, or when somebody asks me to, which doesn't really happen...hahaha...anyway, there are a few people who still remember this song and ask for it once in a while. 





TWO SHOES
It was at a little front porch sale, she stopped to look around, 
She saw those two shoes, Sunday slippers, a bargain to be found.
But her husband didn't know the Lord, so what good were they to him?
But God said "Just believe, you will receive," so she took Him at His Word...

Time passed on and she wondered if, she'd ever see the day,
He'd wear those two shoes, Sunday slippers, and to the church house make his way,
Then it happened on one Sunday morn, as she started out the door,
He said "Wait for me", she turned to see,Those two shoes walking 'cross the floor...

And there were two shoes, a prayer, and a promise God would keep,
To save the soul of the one who wore, those two shoes on his feet,
She held them as she prayed each day, as the tears ran down her cheeks, 
There were two shoes, a prayer and a promise God would keep...

The preacher told of Calvary, of the old, rugged cross,
How that Jesus came, and gave His life, to save all the lost, 
Then he gave the invitation, and she saw what brought a smile,
She saw those two shoes, Sunday slippers, go walking down the aisle,

And there were two shoes, a prayer, and a promise kept so sweet,
God saved the soul of the one who wore, the two shoes on his feet,
He wore them as he prayed that day, as the tears ran down his face,
There were two shoes, a prayer, and a sinner, saved by grace,

There were two shoes, a prayer, and a sinner saved by grace...
Saved by grace.....
