Not Me Lord, You
by Bishop Paul S. Morton

Album: Still Standing

Verse:
Before I ever say one word; Lord concentrate 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 oh
Not me Lord, You

Hook 1:
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 oh
Not me Lord, You

Bridge 1:
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!

Hook 2:
So I lay down the title bishop; pick up the title servant.
So with Your fire consume my pride & 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 oh
Not me Lord, You

Bridge 2:
Does anybody need a word? 4x
Well I don't want them to see me
I want them to see You
Oh not me, Lord You

Bridge 3:
Does anybody need a word, anybody desperate for a word? Anybody been waiting for a word? You came to this place tonight for a word!

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

I move myself out the way, not me
Oh my my, Lord You
Oh 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 oh
Not me, oh Lord You
That's all that matters
Yeah, yeah, yeah...

You
Please don't seek me, please don't seek 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
