The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost (1)__________________ 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 (2)____________ boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his hands he held a (3)________ 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 what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy (4)__________ shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these (5)__________ are just 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 know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what (6)____________ like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he (7)____________ and he looked at me
He (8)________ Mama made 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 (9)________ the (10)__________ down, I just had to help him out
I'll (11)__________ forget the (12)________ on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I want to buy (13)__________ (14)__________ 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 (15)________ for (16)__________ a while
And I (17)________ (18)__________ (19)__________ 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 remind me what Christmas is all about


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 (20)________ there's not (21)________ time
You see she's (22)________ sick for (23)__________ a while
And I know these (24)__________ would (25)________ her smile
And I want her to look (26)__________________ if Mama (27)__________ Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if Mama (28)__________ Jesus (29)______________
