If You Ask

I hate sticking out from the crowd
I’d rather hide behind my thick glasses
I’m much too shy to fight or speak out loud
I’d rather scratch a chalkboard
Than talk about myself
Oh, but you are all that I treasure
It’s time to share the wealth
So if you ask
I’ll show my face
Yeah if you ask me
I’ll go anywhere you say
I’ll shout your name to the mountain tops
Alleluia!
Praise the Lord!
I can’t believe the things they’re saying about you
Makes me want to curl up and cry
I wish they knew
How much you suffered
To save them from the everlasting fire
Oh, but tough times call for tough measures
This time it’s down to the wire
So if you ask
I’ll show my face
Yeah, if you ask me
I’ll go anywhere you say
I’ll shout your name to the mountain tops
Alleluia!
Praise the Lord!
But your voice is so hard to hear sometimes
When the going gets rough I want to run away
No one lights a fire to hide it from view
So let it shine…
Let it shine…
Let it shine!
So if you ask
I’ll show my face
Yeah, if you ask me
I’ll go anywhere you say
I’ll shout your name to the mountain tops
Alleluia!
Praise the Lord!
