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

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

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy (8)__________ (9)__________ for my Mama, please
It's (10)__________________ Eve and these shoes are (11)________ 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 (12)________ her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted (13)______________ 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 (14)__________ to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her (15)__________ Christmas shoes

So I laid the money down, I just had to (16)________ him out
I'll never (17)____________ the look on his face when he said
Mama's (18)__________ 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, Daddy (19)________ there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would (20)________ her smile
And I want her to (21)________ beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I knew I'd (22)____________ 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 (23)__________________ is all about
