Okay, I've been listening to this one radio station since some time in November. It's 96.1 WEJZ, Jacksonville's (FL) #1 holiday music station. I just heard this song that they haven't played since some time in November and I love the song, but I have absolutely no idea what the name of it is or who it's by. Does anyone recognize the chorus? :

Mister will you buy these shoes,
For my mama please,
She's been sick a while,
And I know these shoes will make her smile,

These shoes are just her size,
And I want her to look beautiful,
if she goes to meet Jesus tonight.

********************************************************
Those aren't the exact lyrics, and I kind of messed them up in the middle, but that's all I can remember. Please answer with the artist name, song name, and possibly the lyrics too.

Thanks!
Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukkah! Happy Kwanzaa! And happy all other holidays!

Answer
It was almost Christmas time
There I stood in another line
Trying 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 around 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
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 her to look beautiful
If Momma meets Jesus, tonight.

He counted pennies for what seem like years
And cashier says son there's not enough here
He searched his pockets franticly
And he turned and he looked at me
He said Momma made Christmas good at our house
Though most years she just did without
Tell me Sir
What am I gonna do?
Some how Iâve got to buy her these Christmas shoes

So I layed 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 her to look beautiful,
If Momma meets Jesus tonight.

I knew I caught a glimpse of heavens love as he thanked me and ran out.
I know that God had 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 her to look beautiful
If Momma meets Jesus tonight

I want her to look beautiful
If Momma meets Jesus tonight
