Matthew Simmons | the Story Behind “Unending Praise”

Matthew Simmons’ song “Unending Praise” is a modern worship anthem centered on the eternal greatness of God.

The song moves through creation, the death and resurrection of Jesus, and the promised return of Christ. At every point, the message remains the same. Everything in this world will eventually fade, but God will remain holy and worthy of praise forever.

Matthew wrote the song with a desire to see people respond to salvation with authentic faith and worship. He wants listeners to recognize the power of God, remember the victory of Jesus over the grave, and lift their voices together in praise.

The opening lyrics establish that contrast.

“Everything comes to an end. This world will fall away like sand. But I will bless Your name.”

Human accomplishments, kingdoms, and even the created world are temporary. The holiness of God is eternal.

The chorus turns that truth into a congregational declaration.

“We sing praise, unending praise. For all our days, we offer up to You all our praise.”

The bridge celebrates the resurrection with repeated cries of hallelujah and the declaration that the Lord is greater than the grave. It is written to build into a powerful worship moment where believers can proclaim the victory of Jesus together.

Inspired by Psalm 145 and the worship surrounding the throne in Revelation chapter 5, “Unending Praise” reminds listeners that worship is not limited to a single service, season, or moment. God is worthy of praise today, throughout our lives, and for all eternity.

“Unending Praise” by Matthew Simmons is available now on major streaming platforms.
