You are the God who buys me back.
Everytime I run to the marketplace
And sell myself to a lie
You show up with a fistful of truth
And You buy me back.
Every time
Your word alone is enough
To remind me
And the slave driver
That with Your own flesh and blood
You have already paid for me
In full.
I belong to You, Great God.
You bought me back at a great price.
May I not run from You today.
