Author: F. E. B. Hymnal: Christ in Song #586 (1908) First Line: Look for the way-marks as you journey on Refrain First Line: Look for the way-marks, the great prophetic way-marks Lyrics: 1 Look for the way-marks as you journey on,
Look for the way-marks, passing one by one;
Down thro' the ages, past the kingdoms four,
Where are we standing?
Look the way-marks o'er.
Chorus:
Look for the way-marks, the great prophetic way-marks,
Down thro' the ages, past the kingdoms four.
Look for the waymarks, the great prophetic waymarks;
The journey's almost o'er.
2 First, the Assyrian kingdom ruled the world,
Then Medo Persia's banners were unfurled;
And after Greece held universal sway,
Rome seized the scepter,
Where are we today? [Chorus]
3 Down in the feet of iron and of clay,
Weak and divided, soon to pass away;
What will the next great, glorious drama be?
Christ and his coming,
And eternity. [Chorus] Topics: The Home Eternal Return of Christ; Special Selections Solos Languages: English Tune Title: [Look for the way-marks as you journey on]
