The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost (1)__________________ time, (2)__________ I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last 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 hands he held a pair of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was (3)__________ from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I (4)________ to buy these (5)__________ 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 (6)__________ Jesus tonight

He (7)______________ (8)______________ for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not (9)____________ here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he (10)____________ and he looked at me
He said Mama made Christmas good at our house
Though most years she just did without
Tell me Sir, (11)________ 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 (12)________ him out
I'll never (13)____________ the (14)________ on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I want to buy (15)__________ (16)__________ for my Mama, please
It's (17)__________________ Eve and (18)__________ 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 (19)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I (20)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a (21)______________ of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had (22)________ that little boy
To (23)____________ me what Christmas 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 (24)________ there's not (25)________ time
You see she's (26)________ sick for quite a while
And I know these (27)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
