[Verse 1]
We come in from our   travels, lay our gifts beneath the tree;
my mother's in the   kitchen,   the parade is on TV.
My father's with his   father, they're setting out some toys;
the kids all want the   train he's had since he was a boy.
 
[Chorus]
To be with You,     to be with You,
I love this time of year, it always brings me here
to be with You.
 
[Verse 2]
I fall in with my sisters   just like when we were young,
my grandma holds the   baby,   she rocks and softly   hums.
We gather round the   table,   we close our eyes   and sing:
praise God from whom all blessings flow.
 
To be with You,     to be with You,
I love this time of year, it always brings me here
to be with You.
Praise God from whom all blessings [Interlude] flow.
 
 
[Verse 3]
We set our milk and cookies,   the kids are quick to bed;
they know St. Nick is coming   and nothing need be said.
We gather by the fire,   reminiscing by its light,
the kids will be up early   but it's hard to say goodnight.
 
[Chorus]
To be with You,     to be with You,
I love this time of year, it always brings me here
to be with You.
To be with You,
I love this time of year, it always brings me   here
to be with
