The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost (1)__________________ time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last (2)________ or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing right in front of me was a (3)____________ boy waiting anxiously
Pacing 'round like little (4)________ do
And in his hands he held a pair of shoes

And His clothes were worn and old, he was dirty from head to toe
And when 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 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 (5)________ her to look (6)__________________ if (7)________ meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what seemed like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not enough here
He (8)________________ his pockets frantically
Then he turned and he looked at me
He said (9)________ made Christmas (10)________ at our house
Though most years she just did without
Tell me Sir, (11)________ am I going to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her (12)__________ Christmas shoes

So I (13)________ the (14)__________ down, I just had to help him out
I'll never forget the (15)________ on his face when he said
Mama's gonna (16)________ so great

Sir, I (17)________ to buy (18)__________ shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (19)__________ shoes are (20)________ 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 (21)__________ shoes would (22)________ her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I (23)________ I'd (24)____________ a glimpse of heaven's love
As he (25)______________ me and ran out
I knew that God had sent that little boy
To (26)____________ me what Christmas is all about


Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and (27)__________ 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 (28)__________ 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
