The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was (1)____________ Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last (2)________ or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing (3)__________ in front of me was a (4)____________ boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his hands he (5)________ a pair of shoes

And His clothes were (6)________ and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't (7)______________ what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these (8)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (9)__________ (10)__________ 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 (11)________ these (12)__________ would (13)________ 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 searched his pockets frantically
Then he (14)____________ and he looked at me
He (15)________ (16)________ made Christmas good at our house
Though (17)________ years she just did without
Tell me Sir, what am I (18)__________ 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 (19)____________ the look on his face when he said
Mama's (20)__________ look so great

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (21)__________________ 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 (22)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I (23)________ I'd (24)____________ 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 what (25)__________________ 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 meets Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if (26)________ meets Jesus (27)______________
