The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last gift or two, not (1)____________ 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 (2)________ a pair of shoes

And His (3)______________ (4)________ worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And (5)________ it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe (6)________ I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these (7)__________ 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 (8)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if (9)________ (10)__________ Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not (11)____________ here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said Mama made Christmas (12)________ 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 (13)__________________ shoes

So I laid the money down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the (14)________ on his (15)________ 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 shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (16)__________ says there's not much time
You see she's (17)________ sick for quite a while
And I (18)________ (19)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look 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 knew that God had sent that little boy
To remind me (20)________ Christmas is all about


Sir, I want to buy these (21)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these (22)__________ are (23)________ 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 (24)________ her smile
And I want her to (25)________ beautiful if Mama (26)__________ Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus (27)______________
