The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

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

And His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe (5)________ I (6)__________ 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 (7)________ 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 (8)__________________ if Mama meets (9)__________ tonight

He (10)______________ pennies for what seemed (11)________ years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not (12)____________ here
He searched 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 forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's (13)__________ look so great

Sir, I (14)________ to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these (15)__________ are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for (16)__________ a while
And I (17)________ (18)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if (19)________ (20)__________ Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a (21)______________ of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew (22)________ God had (23)________ that little boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I want 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 (25)__________ a while
And I know (26)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look (27)__________________ if (28)________ meets Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if (29)________ meets Jesus tonight
