It was almost (1)__________________ time, there I stood in another line

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 (6)______________ what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (7)__________________ Eve and these (8)__________ are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (9)__________ says there's not (10)________ time
You see she's (11)________ sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets (12)__________ tonight

Though most (16)__________ she just did without

And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I (24)________ her to look beautiful if Mama (25)__________ Jesus tonight
