The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

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

And His (5)______________ were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time 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 Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (6)________ there's not much time
You see she's been (7)________ for quite a while
And I know these (8)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He (9)______________ pennies for (10)________ seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He (11)________ Mama made Christmas good at our house
Though (12)________ 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 (13)__________ forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I (14)________ to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are (15)________ her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (16)________ there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I (17)________ these (18)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to look (19)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I (20)________ I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had (21)________ that little boy
To remind me (22)________ Christmas is all about


Sir, I (23)________ to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (24)__________________ 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 would (25)________ her smile
And I (26)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I want her to look (27)__________________ if (28)________ meets Jesus tonight
