The Christmas Shoes by NewSong
It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last gift or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a little boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his hands he held a (1)________ of shoes
And His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't (2)______________ what I heard him say
Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (3)__________________ Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (4)__________ says there's not much time
You see she's been (5)________ for quite a while
And I know (6)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I (7)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
He counted (8)______________ for what seemed like years
Then the (9)______________ said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he (10)____________ at me
He (11)________ Mama (12)________ Christmas good at our house
Though most years she just did without
Tell me Sir, what am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes
So I (13)________ the money down, I just had to help him out
I'll (14)__________ forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great
Sir, I want to buy (15)__________ (16)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (17)________ there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I (18)________ these (19)__________ (20)__________ make her smile
And I want her to (21)________ beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had (22)________ that little boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about
Sir, I want to buy these (23)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (24)________ there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these (25)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to (26)________ (27)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight
