All Is Vanity (Ecclesiastes) Lyrics by Caroline Cobb

a Home & a Hunger: Songs of Kingdom Hope

2017

[Verse 1]
Wisdom is good, it puts eyes in your head
But it's foolish to think it'll save you from death
Both the fool and the wise man are numbering their breaths
And in the end, all this wisdom is just meaningless
[Verse 2]
Pleasure is nice, the taste and touch
But with all your indulgence, you can't get enough
You can chase every pleasure around every bend
But in the end all this chasin' is just chasin' wind
[Chorus]
Oooh all is vanity, oooh all is vanity
You feel eternity and it's beating in your chest
So you know in your soul it's not all meaningless
[Verse 3]
Beauty is sweet to the beholder's eye
And you know it when you see it 'cause it echoes the Light
But age and opinion bid beauty goodbye
And in the end the beholder just changes his mind
[Chorus]
Oooh all is vanity, oooh all is vanity
You feel eternity and it's beating in your chest
So you know in your soul it's not all meaningless
[Bridge]
If there is restlessness, could there be rest?
If there is hunger, could there be fullness?
If there is restlessness, there must be rest
If there is hunger, there must be fullness!
[Interlude]
[Outro]
You feel eternity and it's beating in your chest
So you know in your soul it's not all!… meaningless
