The song is Christmas Shoes and has been sung by a few people; Bob Carlisle and Newsong
It was almost Christmas time
There I stood in another line
Try to buy that last give or two
I'm really in Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me
Was a little boy waiting anxiously
Pacing around like little boys do
And in his hands he had
A pair of shoes
And 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
Sir I wanna buy these shoes for my Momma please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry Sir?
Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes will make her smile
And I want it to look beautiful
If Momma meets Jesus tonight
They counted pennies for what seems like years
And cashier says son there's not enough here
He searches is pockets franticly
And he turned and he looked at me
And he said Momma made Christmas good in our house
Most years she just did without
Tell me Sir
What am I gonna do?
Some how I gotta buy her these Christmas shoes
So I lend the money down
I just had to help him out
And I'll never forget
The look on his face
When he said Momma's gonna look so great
Sir I wanna buy these shoes for my Momma please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry Sir?
Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes will make her smile
And I want it to look beautiful
If Momma meets Jesus tonight
I know I won't regret some help as he thanked me and ran out
I know that God sent that little boy to remind me
What Christmas is all about
Sir I wanna buy these shoes for my Momma please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry Sir?
Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes will make her smile
And I want it to look beautiful
If Momma meets Jesus tonight
I want it to look good
If Momma meet's Jesus tonight

Oooh! I recognized the "...if Momma meets Jesus tonight" part. I think the song is just plainly called 'Christmas Shoes'. For some reason I wanna say Kenny Rogers sings it but I'm not sure....I don't really listen to that kinda music....my parents do.

I can tell you, as you might have guessed the name of the song is "The Christmas shoes"
But I have forgotten who sings it...
It is a beautiful song..the 1st time I heard it,.I did not pay much attention to it, but upon hearing it the 2nd time and actually listening to the words,. it made me cry....

Sing of stable issues no longer undesirable, sing of happy no longer unhappy. Sing, Sing a music, sing it user-friendly to final the full night long. do no longer worry if its no longer stable adequate for all people else to hearken to, purely sing, sing a music.

I don't know who, but I really hate that song. It is way too sappy and unrealistic. I would even go as far as to say that Grandma got run over by a reindeer is better
