Steven Stewart Fill His Shoes Lyrics

The child found the sandals
Mile from Calvary
Thrown there by the soldiers
Who had crucified his King

The child knew who really owned them
And held the shoes with awe
Though the leather, torn and tattered
Was discolored from the blood

The child said, "I could never fill His shoes
Though He was the one who taught me how to stand
I could never fill His shoes
But I can retrace His footsteps and follow his path

The sandals took him far from home
To tell the world of Christ
Traveling the extra miles
Bringing love to loveless lives

The spirit help the child to speak
To bless each house with hope
Though the path was difficult
He never walked alone

I could never fill His shoes
Though He was the one who taught me how to stand
I could never fill His shoes
But I can retrace His footsteps and follow his path

So many thankful tears had loosed the bindings
So many traveled roads had worn the soles
These sandals spent their lifetime in His service
And so must I

I could never fill His shoes
Though He was the one who taught me how to stand
I could never fill His shoes
But I can retrace His footsteps and follow his path
