The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was (1)____________ (2)__________________ time, (3)__________ 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 (4)______________ anxiously
Pacing 'round (5)________ (6)____________ boys do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

And His (7)______________ were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (9)__________ shoes are (10)________ her size

You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know (11)__________ (12)__________ (13)__________ make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets (14)__________ tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here

You see she's been (20)________ for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I (21)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets (22)__________ tonight

Bridge:
I (23)________ I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love

I (24)________ that God had sent that little boy
To remind me (25)________ (26)__________________ is all about


Sir, I want to buy (27)__________ shoes for my Mama, please
