The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

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

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

Chorus:
Sir, I (7)________ to buy (8)__________ shoes for my Mama, please
It's (9)__________________ Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy (10)________ 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 (11)______________ pennies for (12)________ seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here
He (13)________________ his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He (14)________ Mama (15)________ 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 look on his face when 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 (16)__________ a while
And I (17)________ these shoes (18)__________ make her smile
And I want her to (19)________ beautiful if Mama meets (20)__________ tonight

Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a (21)______________ of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew (22)________ God had sent that little boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I (23)________ to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (24)__________________ Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (25)__________ (26)________ 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 Mama meets Jesus tonight
