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 walkin'
'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 live
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 walkin' down the isle
And there were two shoes
A prayer and a promise
kept so sweet
God saved the soul
of the one
who wore those two shoes
on his feet
He wore them
as he prayed that day
While 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
