Broken And Spilled Out

Broken And Spilled Out

Driven by love for her Lord
Recklessly poured out a valuable essence
Disregarding the scorn
And once it was broken and spilled out
The fragrance filled all the room
Like a prisoner released from his shackles
Like a spirit set free from the tomb

Broken and spilled out
Just for love of you, Jesus
My most precious treasure
Lavished on thee
Broken and spilled out
And poured at your feet
In sweet abandon
Let me be spilled out
And used up for Thee

Lord you were God's precious treasure
His loved and his own perfect Son
Sent here to show me the love of the Father
Just for love it was done
And though you were perfect and holy
You gave up yourself willingly
You spared no expense for my pardon
You were used up and wasted for me
Broken and spilled out
Just for love of me Jesus
God's most precious treasure
Lavished on me
Broken and spilled out
And poured at my feet
In sweet abandon
Lord you were spilled out
And used up for me



This life that we live is not our own. Jesus paid the price for our redemption. In actual fact. we cannot give anything to God because all we have is His. Everything we call our own belong solely to the Lord. We give of ourselves completely to our master. He first gave of Himself to us; He was broken and spilled out. Our life and liberty came with a very high price; the Lamb of God was sacrificed for you and I.
