[Vision Verse]
Four winds troubled the great dark sea;
Four beasts rose where the kingdoms would be.
Lion with wings, bear raised on one side,
Leopard with four heads in terrible stride.
Then came a fourth thing dreadful and strong,
Iron teeth breaking and trampling long.
Ten horns lifted; one spoke proud breath,
Making war with the saints unto death.
[Refrain]
The Ancient of Days took His seat.
Fire flowed out at His feet.
Books were opened; the boasting was done.
Night could not conquer the Holy One.
[Chorus]
One like the Son of Man
Came with the clouds of heaven,
Brought near before the Ancient,
And everlasting rule was given.
Every people, tongue, and nation
Shall serve beneath His hand.
The beasts lose all dominion
To one like the Son of Man.
[Verse 2]
Daniel was grieved by the visions he bore;
An angel explained what the kingdoms were for.
The saints would be worn for a season of time,
Yet judgment would sit and remove evil's claim.
The kingdom beneath all the heavens at last
Would rest with the holy when tyrants had passed.
[Final Chorus]
One like the Son of Man,
His kingdom cannot fade.
No empire can destroy it,
No proud horn make it afraid.
