Alabaster Jar
Gateway Worship · Other Songs - Gateway Worship
This alabaster jar is all I have of worth
I break it at Your feet, Lord, it's less than You
Deserve
You're far more beautiful, more precious than the oil
The sum of my desires and the fullness of my joy
Like You spilled Your blood, I spill my heart
As an offering to my King
Chorus
Here I am, take me as an offering
Here I am, giving every heartbeat for Your glory
Take me
Verse 2:
This time that I have left is all I have of worth
I lay it at Your feet, Lord, it's less than You deserve
And though I've little strength, and though my days are
Few
You gave Your life for me so I will live my life for
You
Like You spilled Your blood, I spill my heart
As an offering to my King
Chorus 2: Here I am, take me as an offering
Here I am, giving every heartbeat for Your glory
Here I am, take me as an offering
Here I am, giving every heartbeat for Your glory, take
Me
Bridge:
Worthy, worthy, You are worthy, worthy is the Lord
Worthy, worthy, You are worthy, worthy is the Lord
(Repeat twice)
