Lizzie Morgan Channels Mary’s Devotion In New Worship Song “Let The Alabaster Break / Alabaster Box”
Lizzie Morgan Announces Solo Debut Album "Not My Will"
NASHVILLE, TN. Lizzie Morgan Channels Mary’s Devotion In New Worship Song “Let The Alabaster Break / Alabaster Box.” Lizzie Morgan has unveiled a deeply moving new worship song titled “Let The Alabaster Break / Alabaster Box”—a stirring anthem that echoes the heart of surrender and sacrificial worship.
Inspired by the biblical story of Mary of Bethany (John 12:1–8, Luke 7:36–50), Morgan’s latest release is a modern-day expression of pouring out one’s all before the feet of Jesus.
The song opens with a resounding declaration of purpose:
“No higher calling / No greater purpose / To spend my days, Lord / To bring You worship.”
From the first lyric, Morgan invites believers into an atmosphere of pure adoration, where every breath is counted as an offering. The chorus repeats a heavenly anthem:
“We give all the glory, glory, glory to the King / For You alone are worthy to be praised.”
This refrain not only anchors the song but echoes Revelation 4:11 — “You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honour and power…”—reminding believers of the eternal praise due to the Lamb of God.
But it’s the bridge and closing verses that truly embody the depth of the song’s message. Drawing from the imagery of Mary’s costly act of worship, Lizzie sings:
“Let the alabaster break / From a song it can’t contain… You are worthy of it all.”
The song crescendos into a passionate cry of devotion, reminiscent of Luke 7:38, where Mary weeps at Jesus’ feet, wiping them with her hair and anointing them with perfume from her alabaster jar. Through repetition, Morgan emphasises a sacred truth:
You don’t know the cost of the oil / You don’t know the cost of my worship.”
It’s a line that will resonate with anyone who’s walked through pain, healing, and redemption—the unseen stories behind every act of worship.
This song isn’t just a musical offering—it’s a call to return to the feet of Jesus with raw vulnerability and abandon. Co-written by a powerful team including Jason Ingram, Jacob Sooter, Davide Mutendji, Sydney James, and Janice Sjostrand (original writer of the classic “Alabaster Box” performed by CeCe Winans), this new rendition bridges generations and brings fresh life to a timeless narrative.
