Alabaster Box – by Cece Winans Dedicated to Faith Rollins(mother of Janelle) and to all women who have been molested, raped, in bondage to the enemy, beaten, and abused. Special thanks to Janelle aka GODSBABYGIRL . Created By Tonycdrive Lyrics… The room grew still As she made her way to Jesus She stumbled through the tears that made her blind She felt such pain Some spoke in anger Heard folks whisper There’s no place here for her kind Still on she came Through the shame that flushed her face Until at last, she knelt before his feet And though she spoke no words Every tear she she shed was heard As she poured her love for the Master From her box of Alabaster Chorus: And I’ve come to pour My praise on Him-like oil From Mary’s alabasterbox Don’t be angry if I wash His feet with my tears And dry them with my hair You weren’t there-the night He found me You did not feel what I felt When He wrapped His loving arms around me And you don’t know the cost Of the oil in my alabaster box I can’t forget The way life used to be I was a prisoner To the sins that had me bound I spent my days Poured my life-without measure Into a little treasure box I thought I had found Until the day-when Jesus came to me And healed my soul With the wonders of-His love So now I’m giving back to Him All the praise He’s worthy of I’ve been forgiven And that’s why I love Him so much Repeat Chorus

God is love…
@missbritbrat10 ,The beginning to 1min 45sec’s is the Movie called “Jesus”. in which the vhs was shipped to thousands (maybe millions) of homes for free. Google the words “The Jesus film project” and click the second link to watch the entire movie in over 1000 languages online for free. The other movie is called “The Gospel of John”.
wat movies are these called? where you got the clips off of??
@mztasha11 IT IS HARD AND I JUST THANK GOD FOR NEVER GIVING UPON ME WHEN TIMES I JUST WANTED TO GIVE UP. HEARING THIS SONG IN PRISON, EMBEDDED IN MY HEART AND THEN SEEING THIS VIDEO GOD BLESSED TONYCDRIVED TO POST WAS JUST AMAZING. I GET SO OVERWHELMED WITH THINGS AT TIMES AND WILL JUST WATCH THIS VIDEO AND SING WITH IT AND CRY AND IT IS LIKE WOW I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER. IT IS AN AMAZING VIDEO AND YOU, TONY, AND A FEW OTHERS ARE A TRUE BLESSING. SEEING THIS TODAY HAS HELPED PUT SO MUCH PEACE IN ME
@tonycdrive I WILL GET TO SEE HER. GOD TOOK THIS WOMAN FROM PRISON WHO HAD NOONE. MY FAMILY IS ONE THAT I DON’T UNDERSTAND BUT THAT IS ALRIGHT CAUSE MY MAIN FOCUS IS GOD, MYSELF AND MY DAUGHTER. IF I CAN MAKE IT THROUGH MY DAD DYING WHEN I WAS LITTLE AND BEING MOLLESTED AND RAPED AS AN ADULT AND BEATED AND GOING TO PRISON, ATTEMPTEMED SUICED TO WHERE I SHOULDN’T BE TYPING RIGHT NOW AND NOT SEEIN MY DAUGHTER FOR ALMOST FOUR YEARS, GOD DIDN’T BRING ME THIS FAR FOR NOTHING. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO
YES, I AM A WOMAN, MY NAME IS VENUS. MY DAUGHTERS NAME, CLEARLY BY SCREEN NAME IS ARRIELLE. HER FATHER HAS TEMPORARY CUSTODY. I MARRIED THE WRONG MAN AFTER HIM. WENT THRU ALOT OF THINGS. SOME I COULD AND COULDN’T CONTROL. NOW I AM DIVORCED FROM HIM AND FIGHTING THE FIGHT TO GET HER BACK AND BY THE GRACE OF GOD I WILL. SO FOR ANY CONFUSION BY MY NAME OF ARRIELLESMOMMY..I APOLOGIZE AND AM NOT CERTAIN HOW THAT GOT THERE. BUT MAY GOD BLESS EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES
@tonycdrive YEAH MY EX HUSBAND HAS TEMPORARY CUSTODY. THINGS GOT COMPLICATED AFTER I RAISED HER FOR 6 YEARS, SHE JUST TURNED TEN. I HAVEN’T SEEN NOR GOTTEN TO HEAR FROM HER SINCE JANUARY 29TH 2007 BECAUSE OF HER FATHER. WITH TEMPORARY CUSTODY, HE HAS TAKEN “FULL” ADVANTAGE AND HE KNEW “FOR CERTAIN” I’D NEVER AFFORD AN ATTORNEY TO TAKE HIM TO COURT TO GET HER HOME. BY THE GRACE OF GOD ON JULY 31ST THIS YEAR…I GOT MY ATTORNEY, NOW IT IS CONTINUING IN GOD’S TIMING, BUT PAINFUL.
@Eyespychica THANK YOU AND MAY GOD TRUELY BLESS YOU. I WENT TO COURT LAST MONTH AND HAD A CHANGE OF VENUE FOR COURTS SO IN MY FAVOR BUT SOME REASON THE PAPER WORK IS NOT GETTING CHANGED YET. MY EX IS HOLDING IT UP, WELL HIM AND HIS ATTORNEY AND IT IS A TRUE STRUGGLE EVERY DAY. I DIDN’T REALIZE HONESTLY TILL TODAY PEOPLE RESPONDED TO ANYTHING AT ALL I SAID ON ANY VIDEO WHATSOEVER. SO MY APOLOGIES FOR NOT THANKING YOU SOONER. MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY. THANKS SO MUCH.
@tonycdrive THANKS VERY MUCH, I TRUELY APPRECIATE IT OH SO MORE THAN YOU COULD EVER KNOW. GOD BLESS YOU FOR EVEN TAKING THE TIME TO REPLY. GOD BLESS YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY AND EVERYONE THAT CROSSES YOUR PATH. AGAIN, THANKS
All the things that Jesus has done for a sinner like me, All the things He’s bought me through. I have to say thank You! For His hand of Favor on me and all my loved ones , I can’t express the gratitude I feel. He is so good to me. Thank You Jesus, Thank You Heavenly Father and Thank You Holy Spirit!! And thank you for posting this song.
This truly an amazing song and Video. This song was sang at our revival service in my church. I felt the presence of the Lord so much that night and every night after that. I serve an awesome God and there is no limit to what he can do if we just open ourselves to him.
This was track 4 and the 3rd single from Cece’s 4th album “Alabaster Box” and was the 3rd song I learned by this powerful woman of God.
@arriellesmommy Sorry for all you have been thru but it is a blessing for you to be able to know that GOD still loves you and your daughter is in his hands! keep praying and watch GOD work for you, may GOD bless you and keep you dont give up, i have been thru many things myself and i know GOD has a reason and plan for me. GOD bless you and your family! I will be praying for you!
Really fighting off the tears. Beautiful song
looking for love in wrong places. allowing yourself to be used just to have love. Praise Jesus his love covers all that and more
@Eyespychica,You’re welcome.
@tonycdrive thanx for the headsup because I didn’t notice
@Eyespychica,Judging by her screen name…i believe arriellesmommy is a woman. So…i believe the father has custody.
@arriellesmommy God bless your heart. I hope and prey that you get to see your daughter and on a regular basis. I hate knowing of a mother who doesn’t let the father see her because she doesn’t get along with him. It’s one thing if the father puts the child in danger or is raising her the wrong way like letting her see bad stuff like guns and drugs and violence but to not let her see her father for no reason shows she doesn’t appreciate a father being in a child’s life. God bless you!
@arriellesmommy ,Thank you for liking the video. Sorry for your loss. I hope you get to see your daughter. God bless you.
@CuteNFly ,What? you hit the other button by mistake? Oh well. at least you’re honest.
THIS IS TRUELY AN AMAZING VIDEO AND SONG. I WAS SITTING IN PRISON WHEN I HEARD IT FOR THE FIRST TIME. I HAD LOST TEMPORARY CUSTODY OF MY DAUGHTER AND MY EX WOULDN’T LET ME SEE HER THOUGH I WROTE HER FAIITHFULLY. MY MOTHER AND NOONE WAS THERE FOR ME AS MY FRIEND AND SISTER N LAW KILLED THEMSELVES AT THE TIME. A KID I GREW UP WITH GOT KILLED THEM MY GRAMMY DIED 3 AND HALF MONTHS BEFORE I GOT OUT. I HAD NOONE AGAIN, SO I THOUGHT. I FEEL SO BLESSED FROM THIS SONG AND FOR WHAT GOD DOES EVERYDAY
missed the like button!!! oops
@wonderfullyme25 ,Amen!
The song has always touched me to the core of my being! Seeing the vidoe with it, was just so much! I couldn’t stop the tears, I couldn’t even sing along with the song because I felt so overwelmed with confirmation. I love him, I love the lord so very much!
