Meaningful Songs

Have you ever heard the song the “Christmas Shoes”? It is a very sad song, but its meaning is amazing.

It is about a boy who wants to buy shoes for his Mom who is going to die soon. But it is on Christmas Eve. It is so sad, and it really means a lot. Here are some lyrics:

“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 says 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”

This song is really meaningful and the first time I heard it, it instantly became my favorite. Go find the lyrics for this song and read them through. This song means a lot to me. It shows a part of Christmas and the holiday season that not many people think about.

(Sequel this and write a song that means a lot to you and why it is so special!)
