Decades of shifting wars between rival kings fill Daniel 11, forty-five verses that trace conflict after conflict without ever naming a king outright.
Full sung version coming soon.
Lyrics
In the first year of Darius the Mede I stood up to confirm and strengthen him Now I will show you the truth
Three more kings will stand up in Persia The fourth will be far richer than all When he has grown strong through his riches He will stir up all against the realm of Greece
A mighty king will stand up Who will rule with great dominion When he stands up, his kingdom will be broken Divided towards the four winds of the sky
The king of the south will be strong One of his princes will become stronger His dominion will be a great dominion But nations will clash and battle
At the end of years they will join themselves The daughter of the king of the south Will come to the king of the north To make an agreement
But out of a shoot from her roots one will stand up Coming to the army, entering the fortress Dealing against them and prevailing He will scatter the gods of the realm
He will stretch out his hand on the countries The land of Egypt won’t escape But news from the east and north will trouble him He will go out with great fury to destroy
He will set the tents of his palace Between the sea and the glorious holy mountain He will stand up against the prince of princes But he will be broken without human hands
Those who are wise amongst the people Will instruct many Yet they will fall by sword and flame By captivity and by plunder many days
