"Broken and Spilled Out"

(Written July 16, 1994)


Like the precious, rare perfume
That was poured at Jesus’ feet,
May my life be ever spilled out,
Its aroma rising sweet.

May I be a broken vessel
That’s presented unto Christ
As an offering, a sacrifice;
I’ll pour out my whole life.

With no regard for my desires,
May all my days be His.
I’ll put Him first, above all else,
For that’s what true love is.

May every moment be for Him,
His thoughts become my words,
His commands become my actions,
My heart with His love be stirred.

Broken and spilled out,
May that my life be –
I’ll abandon myself to His grace;
That many who know me
Will come to know Christ,
And together we’ll all see His face!
