A Fragrant Offering
Rita Springer's "A Fragrant Offering" is a worship song that uses the imagery of pouring out perfume and washing Jesus' feet, as seen in the biblical account of the woman who anointed Him. The lyrics express a deep desire to offer one's brokenness, heart, and life as a pleasing sacrifice to God. It emphasizes humility, surrender, and the need for God's presence, with the repeated act of pouring a vial of worship symbolizing total devotion and love. The song is a personal, intimate prayer of consecration, inviting listeners to bow before the Lord and give their all.
I bring to You a fragrant offering
I pour out my love and I wash Your feet
I offer up to You, oh Lord, this brokenness
What You can see in me shall be my confidence
I bring to You a fragrant offering
I pour out my love and I wash Your feet
I offer up to You, oh Lord, this brokenness
What You can see in me shall be my confidence
May it be a pleasing fragrance
That I bring to You, oh my Lord
I am so in need of Your presence
That I bow before You now
I pour my vial of worship over You
I pour my vial of worship over You
And I give to You a humble sacrifice
I pour out my heart and I give you my life
I offer up to You, oh Lord, this costly gift
And with absolute abandon now, my love I confess
May it be a pleasing fragrance
That I bring to You, oh my Lord
I am so in need of Your presence
That I bow before You now
I pour my vial of worship over You
I pour my vial of worship over You
May it be a pleasing fragrance
That I bring to You, oh my Lord
I am so in need of Your presence
That I bow before You now
I pour my vial of worship over You
I pour my vial of worship over You
