The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost Christmas time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy (1)________ last gift or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in (2)__________ of me was a little boy (3)______________ anxiously
Pacing 'round (4)________ little boys do
And in his (5)__________ he held a pair of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was (6)__________ from head to toe
And when it (7)________ his time to pay
I couldn't believe what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy (8)__________ shoes for my Mama, please
It's (9)__________________ Eve and these (10)__________ are (11)________ her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not much time
You see she's been (12)________ for (13)__________ a while
And I (14)________ (15)__________ (16)__________ would make her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for (17)________ seemed like 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 (18)________ made Christmas good at our house
Though most (19)__________ 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 face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I want to buy these (20)__________ for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (21)__________ shoes 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 (22)________ meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he thanked me and ran out
I (23)________ 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 (24)__________ are (25)________ her size
Could you hurry, sir, (26)__________ (27)________ there's not much time
You see she's been sick for (28)__________ a while
And I know these shoes would make her smile
And I want her to look (29)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
