Blessing and honour, glory and power

Be unto the Ancient of Days

From every nation, all of creation,

Bow before the Ancient of Days.

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,

O Ancient of Days.

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.

Questions

1. The expression “Ancient of Days” is found only in the book of Daniel. Read Daniel 7:1-28. See if we can identify the various characters in this Scripture passage. Belshazzar, Daniel, the fourth beast, the little horn, the Ancient of Days, the son of man, the saints.

2. Here are some other Scripture passages related to this one: Revelation 1:1-17, Revelation 4:1-11, Philippians 2:5-11, Matthew 16:13-27, Revelation 14:9-14.

3. Is it true to say that the “Ancient of Days” and the “son of man” are the same being? If not, what is the connection between them? See John 10:25-32 and 17:11-22.

Song Study 14: Jesus Lover of My Soul

SONG STUDY (14) JESUS LOVER OF MY SOUL This song was written by Charles Wesley in 1740 soon after his conversion. It has been sung to many tunes and in turn has been the inspiration of other great songs. 1 Jesus lover of my soul, Let me to Thy bosom fly, While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high: Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life is past; Safe into the haven guide; O receive my soul at last! 2 Other refuge have I none, Hangs my helpless soul on Thee; Leave, ah! leave me not alone, Still support and comfort me: All my trust on Thee is stayed; All my help from Thee I bring; Cover my defenceless head With the shadow of Thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want; More than all in Thee I find; Raise the fallen, cheer the faint, Heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is Thy name, I am all unrighteousness; False and full of sin I am, Thou art full of truth and grace. 4 P lenteous grace with Thee is found; Grace to cover all my sin; Let the h

Song Study 12: Meekness and Majesty

Song Study (12) MEEKNESS AND MAJESTY This is a modern hymn by Graham Kendrick (UK), written in 1986. Like the earlier hymns we have examined, it is based on Scripture and contains some difficult words. The message of the song is “ When God became man in the form of Jesus he came as a servant. This is what he expects of us too. ” Rather than a series of questions, let’s look at a series of “key Scriptures” to help us understand what this means and how we are to respond to God’s grace. Meekness and Majesty: Meekness And Majesty - Graham Kendrick Lyric Video - YouTube Meekness and majesty, Manhood and Deity, In perfect harmony, The Man who is God. Lord of eternity Dwells in humanity, Kneels in humility And washes our feet. O what a mystery, Meekness and majesty. Bow down and worship For this is your God, This is your God.
