You can't. If your server is hacked into, all your files can be hacked!
However, you could write CGIs or exe's, that is, COMPILED code.
(Php is an interpreter that reads your source file, compiles it and executes it each time it is called.
A compiled code, in binaries, wil STILL be stolen, but MUCH HARDER to use by the thief!

Unfortunately no matter what kind of encryption used if the system is accessed by intruders they will have full access to the same tools as you. Try increased security like the mod_security module for apache.
