Anointing At Bethany

You have come to the table of my soul
Thank you, O Lord, for the mercy you’ve shown
What you took you have given back to me
So I pour out the oil of my dreams
As the tears start to fall, I am bathing your feet
Filling this house with the fragrance of your peace

I bow down to the ground
My hair spills all around
I am kissing your feet
I am wiping them dry because I believe that

You deserve to receive all of my love
Anything less, Lord, would not be enough
I’ll lavish you, Lord, with all I have received
I’ll spend my whole life to anoint you as King

They say, Why are you wasting this gift?
Just think of the good you’d have done if you sold it
To serve all the poor souls in this world
Father forgive them, for they know not what they say
Worthy are you, Lamb of God, who was slain
To receive power, riches, wisdom and strength

I fall down at your throne
Longing for you alone
Singing, Holy, Holy!
God should be given all of the glory

Now, Lord, I sit at your feet
You say the better part’s given to me
By your love, by your generosity
She’s done a good thing for me
My time on earth is but a blink of eternity
But the souls of the just shall live forever in peace

They’ll remember this story
You will be given a crown of glory
In memory of what you’ve done
The story will go on and on
