New Horizons Worship - Break the Bottle (This is My Perfume) (CCM)


New Horizons Worship's 'Break the Bottle (This is My Perfume)' is a powerful and moving song about worshiping Jesus with our all, inspired by the story of a woman who broke a costly bottle of perfume to anoint Jesus' feet. The lyrics speak to the idea of giving up everything we have to worship Him, and not worrying about what others may say or think.

The song begins with the words, 'What if my bottle is my lips, I'll break them open at your feet, what if my fragrance is my song, I'll pour it out all life long.' This imagery of breaking open a bottle of perfume to anoint Jesus with our own lips and song is a powerful representation of what it means to worship Him with our all.

The chorus of the song declares, 'Oo This is my perfume, Oo I brought it just for You.' It is a reminder that our worship is not for ourselves, but for Jesus alone. The lyrics continue to build on this idea with the lines, 'And as it rises, I'm falling more in love, and as I'm falling, all I want is to lift You up.'

New Horizons Worship - Break the Bottle (This is My Perfume)As the song progresses, the bridge declares, 'I'll break the bottle, I'll pour it out, my flesh abandoned, my life laid down.' This is a powerful image of giving up everything we have, even our own lives, to worship Him. It is a reminder that worship is not just something we do with our lips and songs, but with our entire lives.

'Break the Bottle (This is My Perfume)' is a song that encourages listeners to worship Jesus with their all, without worrying about what others may say or think. It is a reminder that our worship is for Him alone, and that we should be willing to give up everything we have to worship Him. I strongly encourage everyone to listen to this powerful and moving song.

"The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" by Chris Sarver: Finding Freedom in Faith

Have you ever felt the weight of the past (old chains) even after you're free? Chris Sarver's "The List Goes On (Jordan's Song)" addresses this specific struggle. Chris shared the following: "Like many of you, I have been part of text thread groups whose main purpose is for encouragement and prayer. … About four years ago, in one of those men's groups, my friend from church, Jordan Hanks, shared a message you can see in the picture. It was simple. He wrote about how sometimes we feel the old weight we carried before Jesus lifted it. And when that weight tries to creep back in, he reminds himself of the names Jesus has earned in his life. He is a Healer." In other words, when shame whispers lies, we must speak truth louder. The lyrics confess, "The chains are gone, sometimes I still find that I can feel their weight." Instead of hiding this feeling, Chris Sarver turns it into a moment of worship. He calls out names that Jesus has earned in...

"Boxes" by John Long: Breaking Free from Religious Boxes

(by Jasper Tan) John Long’s “Boxes,” written with Dustin Smith, is both a reflection and criticism of how we oftentimes allow ourselves to be limited (“boxed”) with our faith. Using the “box” as the core metaphor of the song, it represents our self-imposed (or community-imposed) limitations with religious traditions that prevents genuine a genuine relationship with God. John emphasizes that these limitations often run into conflict with the original intentions of God, to have a free flowing holy communion with God. The song is characterized by our sense of longing and our desire to re-approach our Faith with clean hands and a pure heart. From the opening lines itself, we are challenged to evaluate the current status of our faith and come to realize that it may never really what we intend it to be. Our intention from the start was born from a desire to start a deep and Holy Communion with God, and as the bridge and chorus approaches, the song has a more personal and prayerful tone. We a...

"The Cross" by Mhammed El Alami & HKL: At the Cross, Where Mercy Meets the Weary Heart

Rooted in the story of Jesus giving Himself at Calvary for everyone, "The Cross" by Mhammed El Alami & HKL turns this familiar message into a very personal invitation. Just stop carrying what is crushing you ( "Lay it down, let it go" ), surrender it to Christ, and let Him hold you. These lyrics are not only about the cross at Calvary. It's also about your cross, your fear, your shame, and your need for His peace. "Darkness fell, I was breaking fast," and we may count on the forgiving arms of a merciful Savior who is always there, even when our lives feel cold and heavy. "At the cross // You gave it all, you felt the cold // and love took hold // and made me whole." It's at the cross where "mercy bled and grace was born" for you, personally. It's where His grace clears your way home. What does that mean for us today? It means that we do not need to walk or carry our burdens alone. We may place everything that weighs u...
