The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy (1)________ (2)________ 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 (3)__________ he held a pair of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was (4)__________ (5)________ head to toe
And when it (6)________ his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these (7)__________ 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 (8)__________ a while
And I (9)________ these shoes would make 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 turned and he looked at me
He said (10)________ made Christmas good at our house
Though most years she (11)________ did without
Tell me Sir, what am I (12)__________ to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these (13)__________________ shoes

So I (14)________ the money down, I (15)________ had to help him out
I'll never (16)____________ the look on his (17)________ (18)________ he said
Mama's gonna look so great

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

Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a (19)______________ of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had (20)________ that (21)____________ boy
To remind me what (22)__________________ 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 (23)________ there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these (24)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I (25)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus (26)______________
