The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost Christmas time, (1)__________ I stood in (2)______________ line
Tryin' to buy that last gift or two, not (3)____________ in the (4)__________________ mood
Standing right in front of me was a (5)____________ 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 dirty from head to toe
And when it (6)________ his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I (7)__________ him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (8)__________________ Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's (9)________ 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

He counted pennies for what (10)____________ like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he (11)____________ and he looked at me
He said Mama made (12)__________________ good at our house
Though (13)________ (14)__________ she just did without
Tell me Sir, (15)________ am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her (16)__________ Christmas shoes

So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's (17)__________ look so great

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are (18)________ her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (19)________ there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I (20)________ these (21)__________ (22)__________ make her smile
And I (23)________ 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 (25)________ little boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I want to buy these (26)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are (27)________ her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (28)________ 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
I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
