The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy (1)________ last gift or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in (2)__________ of me was a (3)____________ boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like (4)____________ boys do
And in his (5)__________ he held a pair of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his (6)________ to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (7)__________________ 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 (8)________ these shoes would (9)________ her smile
And I (10)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets (11)__________ tonight

He (12)______________ (13)______________ for what (14)____________ like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his (15)______________ frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said (16)________ made Christmas (17)________ at our house
Though most years she just did without
Tell me Sir, (18)________ am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these (19)__________________ shoes

So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his face (20)________ he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I want to buy (21)__________ shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these (22)__________ are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (23)________ there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I (24)________ I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had sent that little boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about


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