A prophet-woman broke a jar

Author: Brian Arthur Wren, 1936- Hymnal: Together in Song #696 (1999) Topics: Saints Days and Holy Days Any Saint; Saints Days and Holy Days Apostles; Saints Days and Holy Days St Mary Magdalene Lyrics: 1 A prophet-woman broke a jar, by Love’s divine appointing. With rare perfume she filled the room, presiding and anointing. A prophet-woman broke a jar, the sneers of scorn defying. With rare perfume she filled the room, preparing Christ for dying. 2 A faithful woman left a tomb by Love’s divine commission. She saw, she heard, she preached the Word, arising from submission. A faithful woman left a tomb, with resurrection gospel. She saw, she heard, she preached the Word, apostle to apostles. 3 Though woman-wisdom, woman-truth, for centuries were hidden, unsung, unwritten, and unheard, derided and forbidden, the Spirit’s breath, the Spirit’s fire, on free and slave descending, can tumble our dividing walls, our shame and sadness mending. 4 The Spirit knows, the Spirit calls, by Love’s divine ordaining, the friends we need to serve and lead, their powers and gifts unchaining. The Spirit knows, the Spirit calls, from women, men and children, the friends we need, to serve and lead. Rejoice, and make them welcome!
