The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

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

And His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty (6)________ head to toe
And when it (7)________ 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 (8)__________ are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (9)________ there's not (10)________ time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I (11)________ these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to (12)________ (13)__________________ if Mama meets (14)__________ tonight

He (15)______________ (16)______________ for what 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 said Mama made (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 (18)__________ Christmas shoes

So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his (19)________ when he said
Mama's (20)__________ look so great

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 (21)________ time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I (22)________ her to (23)________ beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I (24)________ (25)________ God had sent that little boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I want to buy these (26)__________ for my Mama, please
It's (27)__________________ 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 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
