The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost (1)__________________ time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy (2)________ last gift or two, not (3)____________ in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a (4)____________ boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little (5)________ do
And in his hands he (6)________ a pair of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty (7)________ head to toe
And (8)________ it came his (9)________ to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these (10)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (11)________ 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

He counted (12)______________ 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 Mama 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 (13)________ on his face (14)________ he said
Mama's (15)__________ look so great

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (16)__________________ Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (17)__________ (18)________ 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 (19)________ (20)__________________ 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 (21)________ God had sent (22)________ (23)____________ boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I want to buy (24)__________ 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 (25)________ 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 (26)__________ Jesus tonight
I (27)________ her to (28)________ beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
