Текст песни Not Me Lord, You - Bishop Paul S. Morton

I just want to share my testimony
Because nothing else matters to me
It's not about me
Lord, it's all about You

Before I ever say one word
Lord, concencrate me
Before I ever sing a song
Lord, clean my heart
You have my permission to do
Whatever You need to do
Because I don't want them to hear me
I want them to hear You, ohhhh
Not me, Lord, You

Before I give honor to the pastor
Lord, please search me
Before I greet the saints in love
Lord, kill my flesh
You have my permission to do
Whatever You need to do
Because I don't want them to hear me
I want them to hear You, oohhhh ohhhhh
Not me, Lord, You

Because Your word is a light unto my pathway
Your word is a lamp unto my feet
Yesterday, today, and forever
Your word will never change
So Lord, You speak
Don't let it be me
So I lay down the title bishop
Pick up the title servant
So with Your fire consume my pride
And humble me
You have my permission to do
Whatever You need to do
Because I don't want them to see me
I don't want them to see me
I don't want them to see me
I want them to see You, oooohhh ohhhhh ooohhh
Not me, Lord, You

Does anybody need a word?
Does anybody need a word?
Does anybody need a word?
Does anybody need a word?

Well I don't want them to see me
I want them, to see You
Ohhh not me, Lord You

I move myself out the way, not me
Ohh my my, Lord You, ohhh
I don't even want them to see my suit Lord
I don't want nobody to look at my tie but You
Please don't even look down at my shoes
It ain't about me, it ain't about me
It's about You, ooohh
Not me, ohhhh Lord You
That's all that matters
Yeah, yaa, yaaa...

You
Please don't see me, please don't see me
But let somebody see...
You

Maybe they came to see their friends tonight
But before the night is over, I want them to see...
You

(More ad-lib)

Not me, not me, Lord, You
You, You, You
You, You...
You
