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 really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a little boy (3)______________ anxiously
Pacing 'round like (4)____________ boys do
And in his (5)__________ he (6)________ a pair of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it (7)________ his time to pay
I couldn't believe (8)________ 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 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 (9)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here
He (10)________________ his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said Mama made Christmas 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 (11)____________ the (12)________ 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 these (13)__________ are (14)________ her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been (15)________ for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I (16)________ her to look beautiful if Mama (17)__________ Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had (18)________ that (19)____________ boy
To remind me what (20)__________________ is all about


Sir, I (21)________ to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are (22)________ her size
Could you hurry, sir, (23)__________ (24)________ 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 (27)__________________ if Mama meets (28)__________ tonight
I want her to (29)________ beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
