I'm thinking back today to a time so far away
When the Master taught the people by the shore
How the little sparrow sang and the children spoke His name
And the flowers kissed the shoes that Jesus wore

He walked those dusty roads with a dozen thirsty souls
For he followed destiny to Calvary
How the little olive trees wept to see His misery
And the flowers kissed the shoes that Jesus wore

Oh they gathered there to see on the banks of Galilee
They heard the message brought from Heaven's door
And the blind and the beggar to heard His words of hope so true
When the flowers kissed the shoes that Jesus wore

Brother you can't understand the meaning of this man
And you'll never find what you've been looking for
Till you step down from your throne and you trust in Him alone
And you're walking in the shoes that Jesus wore
