The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost (1)__________________ time, there I stood in (2)______________ line
Tryin' to buy that last (3)________ or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in (4)__________ 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 (5)________ head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I (6)________ to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (7)__________________ 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 (8)__________ a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for (9)________ seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his (10)______________ 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, (11)________ am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes

So I (12)________ the money down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said

Sir, I want to buy these (13)__________ for my Mama, please
It's (14)__________________ Eve and these (15)__________ are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (16)________ there's not much time
You see she's been sick for (17)__________ a while
And I know these (18)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to (19)________ (20)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight

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


Sir, I (23)________ to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
