Track Overview
“Let The Alabaster Break / Alabaster Box” is a mashup track from Lizzie Morgan’s album, Not My Will (Live), that weaves together a contemporary song with a classic worship piece. “Let The Alabaster Break” is an original composition that speaks to the act of sacrificing one’s most treasured possessions as an act of worship. It draws from the story of Mary of Bethany, who broke an expensive jar of perfume to anoint Jesus, symbolizing a total and unrestrained act of devotion.
The track then transitions into “Alabaster Box,” a familiar hymn that further expands on this theme. The inclusion of this well-known song creates a bridge between new and old worship traditions, reinforcing the album’s message of timeless faith. The combination of the two songs creates a narrative arc, moving from a personal reflection on surrender to a communal declaration of devotion. The live performance of the track is intended to guide listeners through this emotional and spiritual journey.
