The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost Christmas time, (1)__________ I stood 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 waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

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

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

He counted pennies 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 (10)__________________ good at our house
Though (11)________ years she (12)________ did without
Tell me Sir, what am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her (13)__________ Christmas shoes

So I laid the money down, I (14)________ had to (15)________ him out
I'll (16)__________ forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna (17)________ 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 (18)__________ make her smile
And I want her to (19)________ beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I (20)________ I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew (21)________ God had (22)________ that little boy
To (23)____________ me (24)________ Christmas is all about


Sir, I (25)________ to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are (26)________ 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 (27)________ beautiful if Mama meets (28)__________ tonight
I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets (29)__________ tonight
