[Verse 1]
Some folks like the summertime when they can walk about
Strollin' through the meadow green, it's pleasant there's no doubt
But just give me the wintertime when the snow is on the ground
For he found me when the snow was on the ground

[Chorus]
He traced my little footprints in the snow
He found my little footprints in the snow, Lord
I bless that happy day when I did lose my way
He found me when the snow was on the ground

[Verse 2]
He dropped in to see me, there was a big round moon
Mother said I just stepped out, I'd be returning soon
He found my little footprints, he traced them through the snow
He found me when the snow was on the ground

[Chorus]
He traced my little footprints in the snow
He found my little footprints in the snow, Lord
I bless that happy day when I did lose my way
He found me when the snow was on the ground

[Verse 3]
Now he's up in heaven, he's with an angel band
I know I'm going to meet him in that happy land
But every time the snow falls it brings back memories
He found me when the snow was on the ground
[Chorus]
He traced my little footprints in the snow
He found my little footprints in the snow, Lord
I bless that happy day when I did lose my way
He found me when the snow was on the ground
