In Daniel, Chapter 7
The prophet has a series of night vigils
And he sees in the night
The kingdoms of the earth, represented by beasts
Full of pride and arrogance
Seeking to rule God's creation
But then, he has a vision of the Heavenly courtroom
The Ancient of Days, the God of Glory, takes His seat in the court
And there are millions, literally millions around His throne, and

He sees thrones placed, the court is seated and thе books are opened
And as thе books are opened

Spoken Word
The empires and the kingdoms of the world
Who thought they had authority
Who thought they had power
Who thought they had influence
When the King took His seat, the powers of the kingdoms of the Earth were stripped
And were given to one like the Son of Man
To Jesus, Yeshua Hamashiach

Spoken Word
And when the Kingdom was given to Jesus
It was given for all time, it was given for eternity
And His Kingdom shall know no end
He is the ruler of the kings of the Earth
He is the faithful witness
And He's seated on the eternal throne
And so, we declare this

"Night Vision: The King Is Seated" by Geoffrey Golden is a powerful song inspired by the biblical story of Daniel in Chapter 7. The lyrics describe Daniel's visions of the kingdoms of the earth, represented by beasts full of pride and seeking to rule over God's creation.
