Artist : Veni domine Song : Ecclesiastes I The Teacher Was King Over Israel I Devoted
Myself To Study And Explore By Wisdom All That Is
Done Under Heaven What A Heavy Burden God Has
Laid On Men I Have Seen All The Things That Are
Done Under The Sun, A Chasing After The Wind
What Is Twisted Can Not Be Straightened What Is
Lacking Can Not Be Counted I Applied Myself To
The Understanding Of Wisdom And Also Of Madness
And Folly But I Learned That This Too Is A
Chasing After The Wind What Is Twisted Can Not
Be Straightened What Is Lacking Can Not Be
Counted With Much Wisdom Comes Much Sorrow The
More Knowledge The More Grief I Denied Myself
Nothing My Eyes Desired I Refused My Heart No
Pleasure My Heart Took Delight In All My Work
And This Was The Reward For All My Labour Yet
When I Surveyed All That My Hands Had Done And
What I Had Toiled To Achieve Everything Was A
Chasing After The Wind The Fate Of The Fool Will
Overtake Me What Then Do I Gain By Being Wise
For The Wise Man Like The Fool Will Not Be Long
Remembered In The Days To Come Both Will Be
Forgotten Like The Fool, The Wise Man Too Must
Die I The Teacher Was King Over Israel I Devoted
Myself To Study And Explore
