The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost Christmas time, there 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 (1)________ and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I (2)__________ him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (3)__________________ Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (4)__________ says there's not much time
You see she's (5)________ (6)________ for quite a while
And I know these shoes (7)__________ make her smile
And I want her to (8)________ beautiful if (9)________ meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for (10)________ seemed like years
Then the (11)______________ said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he (12)____________ at me
He said (13)________ made Christmas good at our house
Though most years she (14)________ did without
Tell me Sir, what am I (15)__________ 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 (16)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (17)__________ says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know (18)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful 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 that God had sent that little boy
To (19)____________ me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I want to buy (20)__________ shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (21)__________ shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (22)__________ says there's not (23)________ time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I (24)________ (25)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I want her to look (26)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight
