The Christmas Shoes by NewSong
It was almost (1)__________________ time, there I (2)__________ in another line
Tryin' to buy that last (3)________ or two, not really in the (4)__________________ mood
Standing (5)__________ in front of me was a little boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like (6)____________ boys do
And in his hands he held a (7)________ of shoes
And His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe (8)________ I (9)__________ him say
Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (10)__________ shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not (11)________ time
You see she's been sick for (12)__________ a while
And I know these shoes would (13)________ her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
He counted pennies for (14)________ seemed (15)________ 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 Mama made Christmas (16)________ 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 (17)________ when he said
Mama's (18)__________ (19)________ so great
Sir, I want to buy these (20)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not (21)________ time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these (22)__________ 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 (23)________ God had sent that little boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about
Sir, I want to buy these (24)__________ 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 (25)________ sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I (26)________ her to look (27)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I want her to (28)________ beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
