The Christmas Shoes by NewSong
It was (1)____________ Christmas time, there I (2)__________ in another line
Tryin' to buy (3)________ (4)________ gift or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a (5)____________ boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round (6)________ 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 when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say
Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these (7)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (8)__________ says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for (9)__________ a while
And I know (10)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
He counted pennies for (11)________ seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not (12)____________ here
He searched his (13)______________ frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He (14)________ 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 (15)________ had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's (16)__________ 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 (17)________ time
You see she's (18)________ sick for quite a while
And I know these (19)__________ 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 what Christmas is all about
Sir, I (20)________ to buy (21)__________ (22)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (23)__________ shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not (24)________ time
You see she's been sick for (25)__________ a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to (26)________ beautiful if Mama (27)__________ Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
