charlie waller & randall hylton - slippers with wings lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
susie was three when she first blessed our home
we loved her as much as a child of our own
but her little legs were all twisted and frail
it was never meant for susie to be well

[chorus]
in her little bedtime prayers, she would say
“lord, i know you’ve been busy today
but when you get some time, oh, please, pretty please
can i have some slippers with wings?”

[verse 2]
she loved to watch the kids in the playground nearby
they’d call susie’s name, she’d wave and say hi
her tiny teardrops would leave a window stained
but it was like our susie to complain

[chorus]
she’d just say to her brown puppy dog
“little scampy, i know it won’t be long
’til i’ll run and play tag like my friends
god’s sending me pretty slippers with wings”

[verse 3]
susie turned four, but her tiny hands were weak
pain took its toll and the color left her cheeks
christmas eve came and we prayed by susie’s bed
i can still hear the last words she said
[chorus]
“mommy, mommy, there’s a man dressed in white
daddy, look, he is shiny and bright
and he’s holding some ribbon and string
’round a pretty pair of slippers with wings”

[outro]
and if ever i was certain of one certain thing
susie’s wearing golden slippers with wings
