The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last (1)________ or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a little boy (2)______________ anxiously
Pacing 'round like little boys do
And in his (3)__________ he held a pair of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And (4)________ it came his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I (5)__________ him say

Chorus:
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 much time
You see she's been sick for (6)__________ a while
And I know (7)__________ shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if (8)________ meets Jesus tonight

He (9)______________ pennies for what seemed like years
Then the (10)______________ said, Son, there's not enough here
He searched his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He (11)________ 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 laid the (12)__________ down, I (13)________ had to (14)________ him out
I'll never forget the (15)________ on his face (16)________ he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I want to buy (17)__________ shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are (18)________ 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 (19)________ her to look beautiful if (20)________ meets (21)__________ tonight

Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he (22)______________ me and ran out
I (23)________ that God had sent that (24)____________ 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 (25)__________ 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 (26)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama (27)__________ Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets (28)__________ tonight
