Verse 1
Though the nations rage
Kingdoms rise and fall
There is still one King
Reigning over all
So I will not fear for this truth remains:
That my God is the Ancient of Days
Chorus
None above Him, none before Him
All of time in His hands
For His throne it shall remain and ever stand
All the power, all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is the Ancient of Days
Verse 2
Though the dread of night
Overwhelms my soul
He is here with me
I am not alone
O His love is sure and He knows my name
For my God is the Ancient of Days
Chorus
None above Him, none before Him
All of time in His hands
For His throne it shall remain and ever stand
All the power, all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is the Ancient of Days
Verse 3
Though I may not see
What the future brings
I will watch and wait
For the Saviour King
Then my joy complete standing face to face
In the presence of the Ancient of Days
Chorus
None above Him, none before Him
All of time in His hands
For His throne it shall remain and ever stand
All the power, all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is the Ancient of Days
The main point and hope of this song is summed up in its title: Ancient of Days. This wonderful reminds us that over and above the details of our lives, God reigns as Ruler and Sovereign. He has reigned from the beginning, and He will reign long after our short lives pass. So, we are able to trust the Ancient of Days with all things that come into and leave our lives.
So, our hearts should overflow as we sing, “None above Him, none before Him, All of time in His hands; for His throne, it shall remain ever stand. All the power, all the glory, I will trust His Name. For my God is the Ancient of Days.”
And what a testimony it is when the gathered Saints of God raise their voices together saying, "Our God...He is the Ancient of Days."
