The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost Christmas time, (1)__________ 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 (2)________ (3)____________ boys do
And in his hands he (4)________ a pair of shoes

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

Chorus:
Sir, I (7)________ to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are (8)________ 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 (9)________ these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to (10)________ beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for (11)________ (12)____________ like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here
He (13)________________ his (14)______________ frantically
Then he (15)____________ and he (16)____________ at me
He said Mama (17)________ Christmas good at our house
Though most (18)__________ 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 (19)__________ down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his face (20)________ 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 (21)________ time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know (22)__________ shoes would (23)________ her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama (24)__________ 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 (25)________ that little boy
To remind me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (26)__________ shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been (27)________ for quite a while
And I (28)________ these (29)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I (30)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
