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 worn and old, he was dirty from (1)________ to toe
And (2)________ it came his time 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 (3)__________ are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not (4)________ time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes (5)__________ make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if (6)________ meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what (7)____________ (8)________ 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 (9)________ at our house
Though most years she just did without
Tell me Sir, what am I (10)__________ to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her (11)__________ (12)__________________ shoes

So I laid the money down, I (13)________ had to help him out
I'll never forget the look on his (14)________ when 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, (15)__________ says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes (16)__________ make her smile
And I want her to look (17)__________________ 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 (18)________ 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 (19)________ her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been sick for (20)__________ a while
And I (21)________ these shoes would make her smile
And I (22)________ her to look beautiful if Mama (23)__________ Jesus tonight
I want her to look (24)__________________ if Mama (25)__________ Jesus (26)______________
