Called Out of Hiding

Call me - call me out of hiding

There's a child who's playing
Trying not to be found
There's a man who's awaiting his time
There's a woman who's hoping 'though
There's no one around
Someone in the dark will hear her whisper
I'm asking you to

Call me - call me out of hiding

And the child is waiting for the courage to go
While the woman still listens alone
And the man sits awakened but wonders
How he's to know when it's time to push away the stone
To no one he says,

Call me - call me out of hiding

I'm there in your need to find your way out of this fight
Because I share in your freedom as you come into the light
When the moment is right
Still doubting, you'll come running
Shouting "Come out, come out, come out
Come out, Come out of hiding"
Called out of hiding
I'm asking you to
Call me - call me out of hiding
I want to be called out of hiding
I need to be called out of hiding
Won't you please call me out of hiding?
