The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy (1)________ 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 (2)________ a (3)________ of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was (4)__________ from (5)________ to toe
And when it came his (6)________ to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard 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 (7)________ 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 want 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 (9)________________ his pockets frantically
Then he (10)____________ and he looked at me
He said (11)________ 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 (12)________ on his face (13)________ he said
Mama's gonna look so great

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


Sir, I want to buy (21)__________ (22)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (23)__________ (24)__________ are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (25)________ there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I (26)________ these shoes would (27)________ her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I want her to look (28)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight
