Vaso de Alabastro

It took a long time to gather
Savings and buy
Alabaster jar
Vessel of pure love
To anoint your lord

It was in Bethany at a dinner
That she arrived without being noticed
She knelt at the master's feet
And broke the jar
And the perfume spread

I am an alabaster jar
I am the perfume of the lord
My great price
Was paid on the cross
To perfume, I will break
At Jesus' feet

Clouds form like a veil
Are hearts crying out to heaven
If there is a God on high
I'm tired of falling
Send a jar to anoint me

When the world despises you
And you can't find a way out
Let me perfume you
I will take you
To the feet of the lord
