The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost (1)__________________ time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that 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 (2)__________ he held a pair of shoes

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

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

He counted pennies for what seemed (9)________ years
Then the (10)______________ said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said Mama made (11)__________________ good at our house
Though most years she (12)________ did without
Tell me Sir, what am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these (13)__________________ shoes

So I laid the (14)__________ down, I just had to (15)________ him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (16)__________________ Eve and (17)__________ 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 (18)________ (19)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I want her to (20)________ 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 (21)____________ boy
To remind me (22)________ Christmas is all about


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 would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama (23)__________ Jesus tonight
I (24)________ her to (25)________ beautiful if Mama meets Jesus (26)______________
