Lyrics
Blessing and honor,
glory and power,
be unto the Ancient of Days.
From every nation,
all of creation,
bow before the Ancient of Days.
CHORUS-
Every tongue in heaven and earth,
shall declare Your glory,
every knee shall bow at Your throne,
in worship.
You will be exalted O God,
and Your Kingdom shall not pass away.
Oh Ancient of Days.
BRIDGE-
Your Kingdom shall reign over all the earth,
sing unto the Ancient of Days.
For none can compare to Your matchless worth,
sing unto the Ancient of Days.

Meaning & Inspiration
"Ancient of Days" is a corporate song of adoration built around God's everlasting rule. It opens with blessing, honor, glory, and power, then widens the scene to include every nation and all creation. The language closely echoes biblical visions in which worship rises before a kingdom that does not end.
The chorus joins two familiar Scripture images: every tongue declaring God's glory and every knee bowing before him. The bridge then restates the central conviction that no earthly power can compare with his worth. Rather than narrating a personal story, the song gathers a community around a single confession: God's authority extends across all peoples and all time. Repetition serves that communal purpose, allowing each statement about divine majesty to become a shared response. The result is worship shaped less by circumstance than by the enduring identity and reign of God.
