The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

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

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

Chorus:
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 (7)________ time
You see she's (8)________ (9)________ for quite a while
And I know these (10)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to look (11)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed (12)________ years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not (13)____________ here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said Mama (14)________ Christmas good at our house
Though most (15)__________ 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 (16)________ 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 (17)________ for quite a while
And I (18)________ these shoes (19)__________ make her smile
And I (20)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I (21)________ I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I knew (22)________ God had (23)________ that little boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I (24)________ to buy (25)__________ (26)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (27)__________ shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for (28)__________ 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
