Alabaster Heart

People on the streets
Often like to stare
Until I look their way and then
I'm not there
The saber of rejection (saber of rejection)
Reaches deep into my soul
Reputation's mantle
Bears a heavy toll

Welcome now the uninvited
Standing at your door
I'm the person in the mirror
You've never seen before
Hollow eyes of outcasts
Searching for a sign
That speaks of the forgiveness
He promised that was mine

Looking at all these faces
Jury and judge
Wrapped in one
When they see me
Do they know me
What have I
Become

The perfume of repentance
Seeks acceptance on His part
My offering (my offering)
Is my alabaster heart

Watching all these faces
Jury and judge
We've become
When He sees us
Does He know us
The day of reckoning
Has come

The perfume of repentance
Seeks acceptance on His part
My offering (my offering)
It's my alabaster heart

The perfume of repentance
Seeks acceptance on His part
Our offering
Our alabaster heart
