It was almost Christmas time, there I (1)__________ in (2)______________ line
Tryin' to buy that last gift or two, not (3)____________ in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a little boy (4)______________ 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 (5)__________ from (6)________ 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 these (8)__________ for my Mama, please
It's (9)__________________ Eve and these (10)__________ 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 (11)______________ pennies for what 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 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 money down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the (12)________ on his face when he said
Mama's gonna look so great

Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (13)__________________ Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not (14)________ 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

As he thanked me and ran out
I knew that God had sent that (16)____________ boy
To (17)____________ me (18)________ (19)__________________ is all about


Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (20)__________________ Eve and (21)__________ (22)__________ are just her size
