Magnificent Defeat
Wes King
What is my purpose for being here
I've had no burning bush or voices in my ear
I have been wandering for all these years
But I've seen no manna or angels appear
And now I long for the solace of my soul
I have wandered from pole to pole
Here I lie, broken at Your feet
Rejoicing at this Magnificent Defeat
I have been wrestling all through the night
The darkness hides the face of the one I fight
Beloved Enemy, demands my life and all I am
But then He blesses me and gives it back again
And now I long for the solace of my soul
I have wandered from pole to pole
Here I lie, broken at Your feet
Rejoicing, rejoicing
Rejoicing at this Magnificent Defeat
Yeah, yeah
