The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

It was almost (1)__________________ time, there I stood in another line
Tryin' to buy that last gift or two, not really in the Christmas mood
Standing (2)__________ in (3)__________ of me was a little boy (4)______________ anxiously
Pacing 'round (5)________ (6)____________ boys do
And in his hands he (7)________ a pair of shoes

And His (8)______________ (9)________ worn and old, he was dirty (10)________ head to toe
And when it came his time to pay
I couldn't (11)______________ what I heard him say

Chorus:
Sir, I want to buy (12)__________ shoes for my Mama, please
It's Christmas Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (13)__________ (14)________ there's not much time
You see she's been sick for quite a while
And I know these shoes would (15)________ her smile
And I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight

He counted pennies for what (16)____________ like years
Then the cashier said, Son, there's not (17)____________ 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 (18)__________ 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 shoes for my Mama, please
It's (19)__________________ Eve and these shoes are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, (20)__________ 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 (21)________ her to look (22)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight

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


Sir, I want to buy these shoes for my Mama, please
It's (24)__________________ Eve and these (25)__________ are just her size
Could you hurry, sir, Daddy says there's not (26)________ 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 (27)________ (28)__________ (29)__________ tonight
I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
