The Christmas Shoes by NewSong
It was (1)____________ Christmas time, (2)__________ I (3)__________ in (4)______________ 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 (5)______________ were worn and old, he was (6)__________ from (7)________ to toe
And (8)________ it came his time to pay
I couldn't (9)______________ (10)________ I heard him say
Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy (11)__________ shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are (12)________ 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 would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
He counted pennies for (13)________ seemed like years
Then the (14)______________ said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he (15)____________ at me
He said Mama (16)________ (17)__________________ 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 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 gonna look so great
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (18)__________ shoes are (19)________ 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 (20)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a (21)______________ of heaven's love
As he (22)______________ me and ran out
I knew that God had sent that little boy
To remind me what (23)__________________ is all about
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not (24)________ time
You see she's been (25)________ for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to (26)________ (27)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if (28)________ meets Jesus tonight
