The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

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

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these (5)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (6)__________ (7)__________ are (8)________ 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 (9)________ her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama (10)__________ 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 (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 (12)________ had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna (13)________ so great

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

Bridge:
I (19)________ I'd caught a (20)______________ of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had sent that little boy
To (21)____________ me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I want to buy (22)__________ 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 (23)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look (24)__________________ if Mama (25)__________ (26)__________ tonight
I (27)________ her to look beautiful if (28)________ meets Jesus tonight
