the nard of our blood – v3

Do we fall before Him
as she did, entering in
is our blood the nard
do we wash His feet
do we give all to God

not to be timid, hesitant
our lives to be poured
from our clay vessels
earthen jars for a purpose
to anoint the Christ

clay jars shattered
our bodies the offerings
broken, emptied
the nard of our blood
given unto God

our blood to be poured
our bodies on the altar
clay vessels shattered
poured, extravagant
a fragrant offering

we are the perfume
the clay of our vessel
our lives the oil,
the fragrance, the offering
the nard poured on God
