The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost Christmas time, (1)__________ 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 pair of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was (2)__________ from (3)________ to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe (4)________ I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (5)__________ shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (6)________ there's not much time
You see she's (7)________ sick for quite a while
And I know these (8)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if (9)________ meets (10)__________ tonight

He (11)______________ pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here
He (12)________________ his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said Mama made Christmas good at our house
Though (13)________ (14)__________ she (15)________ did without
Tell me Sir, what am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes

So I laid the (16)__________ down, I just had to (17)________ him out
I'll (18)__________ forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna (19)________ so great

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (20)__________________ Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes (21)__________ make her smile
And I want her to (22)________ beautiful if Mama (23)__________ 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 sent that (24)____________ boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I want to buy these (25)__________ for my Mama, please
It's (26)__________________ Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's (27)________ sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama (28)__________ (29)__________ tonight
I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
