Alabaster

This is a song I wrote based on the passage about the woman who anointed Jesus with an alabaster jar of perfume and cleaned his feet. See Luke 7:36-50 for the full story.

While it is written to speak to her scenario, the lyrics can apply to anyone's life in receiving forgiveness and then telling their story of freedom in Christ.

Alabaster
by: Andrew Allen

Take your jar of alabaster
pour it out upon the master
clean His feet and dry your tears
you're forgiven do not fear

Let not your heart be troubled
Let not your spirit fail
The chains of sin are broken
Go into the world and tell

He has given me life
and healed the pain
from all the things that I've done
freed me from shame

Give your heart to Him instead
and listen to the words He says
Sin is gone now you are free
Faith has saved you go in peace

Let not your heart be troubled
Let not your spirit fail
The chains of sin are broken
Go into the world and tell

He has given me life
and healed the pain
from all the things that I've done
freed me from shame
