every tongue--Compare "every knee" (Philippians 2:10). In every way He shall be acknowledged as Lord (no longer as "servant," Philippians 2:7).

to the glory of God the Father--the grand end of Christ's mediatorial office and kingdom, which shall cease when this end shall have been fully realized (John 5:19-23, John 5:30; John 17:1, John 17:4-7; 1 Corinthians 15:24-28).
