You Won’t Illuminate Me

You Won’t Illuminate Me
(Jacob McGowen)

1st Verse:
You can keep your fancy cars
You can keep your homes
I don’t want my name in lights
Or a jet plane of my own
I don’t want a song to sell
Or a show to promote
It would be bad if I placed in you my hope

Chorus:
For you won’t eliminate me!
So, get yourself ole Devil behind me!
No, you won’t illuminate me!
So, get yourself ole Devil behind me!

2nd Verse:
You offer riches, fortune and fame
A life of plenty and no amount of pain
Yet, throughout history there’ve been many who
Have sold their mortal souls and their whole lives to you
And you take many up mountains
And you offer them them the world
But, God says to worship Him only
And since you can’t hear, I’ll remind you that…

2nd Chorus:
You won’t eliminate me!
So, get yourself ole Devil behind me!
No, you won’t illuminate me!
So, get yourself ole Devil behind me!

Bridge:
You lead children to darkness
And you cripple the strong
But the Lord He’s still Yahweh
Who was and is and is to come

3rd Chorus:
So, pack your bags! Get out of my house and
I’ll drive out your lies with His glorious Truth!
Return to Hell right where you belong and
Remember you’ll get what is coming to you!
