The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

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

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

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy (7)__________ (8)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (9)__________ 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 (10)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted (11)______________ for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not (12)____________ here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he (13)____________ at me
He (14)________ (15)________ 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 (16)________ had to (17)________ him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's (18)__________ 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 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 (19)__________ tonight

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


Sir, I want to buy these (22)__________ 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 (23)________ these shoes would make her smile
And I (24)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if (25)________ meets Jesus tonight
