The Christmas Shoes by NewSong

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

And His clothes were worn and old, he was (8)__________ from head to toe
And (9)________ it (10)________ his time to pay
I couldn't (11)______________ what I (12)__________ 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 (13)________ 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 counted pennies for (14)________ 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 (15)________ (16)________ Christmas good at our house
Though most years she (17)________ did without
Tell me Sir, what am I (18)__________ to do,
Somehow I've got to buy her these Christmas shoes

So I (19)________ the money down, I just had to (20)________ him out
I'll never forget the look on his face when he said
Mama's gonna (21)________ 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 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 (22)__________________ if Mama meets Jesus tonight

Bridge:
I knew I'd caught a glimpse of heaven's love
As he (23)______________ me and ran out
I knew that God had (24)________ 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 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 (25)________ her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
I want her to look beautiful if Mama meets Jesus tonight
