Alabaster Jar A Self Offering Song

One of the favorite songs of my wife right now is “Alabaster Jar“.

The song is more like a devotional-worship song. It suppose to have a little bit solemn music. But since the song was sung by various Christian hard musicians, it seems like to fit more for the younger generation.

The music is quite noisy, which is very similar to Hillsong. The oldies might not accept this music well, but for sure, most of our young people will love it.

Anyway, Alabaster Jar is still one of the most well known music as of the moment. Hope you’ll enjoy the music.
