Bought By Blood
Deliverance Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The seductress that flatters with her tongue
Don't be lead astray by her deceit
Nany are the victims she's cast down
All her slain are a might host
Her house is the way to hell
Descending to the chambers of death
Time and time and time again
Men are slaves to her
Sexual immorality
Leaving out the purity
It's not the way God intended it to be
Repentance is essential here
So we must practice what we preach
Fornicators shall have their part
Only hypocrites do the opposite of what they teach

You've been paid for
At a price
You've been bought by blood
The precious blood of Christ
You've been bought by blood

All her slain are mighty host
Her house is the way to Hell
Descending to the chambers of death

You've been paid for
At a price
You've been bought by blood




The precious blood of Christ
You've been bought by blood

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in "Bought By Blood" by Deliverance do not hide or skirt around the issue of sexual immorality. In the first stanza, the song implores the listener to resist lustful temptation and avoid being lured into sin by the seductress who uses flattery to deceive. The song goes on to describe the destructive power of sexual immorality and the harm it causes to both individuals and society. The message is clear, sexual immorality is not what God intended and repentance is essential.


The song then shifts its focus to redemption and salvation through Christ. The lyrics emphasize that the listener has been paid for at a price, that price being the precious blood of Christ. The use of the phrase "bought by blood" is a powerful and poignant reminder of the sacrifice and ultimate price paid by Christ to save humanity from sin and its consequences. The song ends with a repetition of this message, that the listener has been bought by blood and is therefore redeemed.


Overall, the song is a call to resist temptation, to turn away from sin, and to embrace the redemptive power of Christ's sacrifice. It is a powerful reminder that salvation comes at a cost and that Christians are called to live lives that reflect the grace and mercy they have received through Christ.
