New English Seventh Day Adventist Hymnal

Hymn 596 LOOK FOR THE WAYMARKS Lyrics

1
Look for the waymarks as you journey on,
Look for the waymarks passing one by one;
Down through the ages, past the kingdoms four’
Where are we standing? Look the waymarks o’er.

CHORUS:
Look for the waymarks, the great prophetic waymarks,
Down through 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 MedoPersia’s banners were unfurled;
And after Greece held universal sway,
Rome seized the scepterWhere are we today?

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.
