Under The Sun

<p>He was a King, a teacher<br/>And the wisest in the land<br/>Driven by a passion<br/>Just to know and understand<br/>He opened wide His eyes<br/>Sought to see beyond the lies<br/>And found a world beyond<br/>His understanding<br/><br/>Under the sun<br/>He saw the vanity of vanities<br/>He bravely looked at life<br/>And saw futility<br/>Torn between the facts He saw<br/>And all He ever had believed<br/>Between His hopes<br/>And what He&#x27;d clearly seen<br/>He hoped it might be wisdom<br/>So He set himself to learn<br/>But found the more the knowledge<br/>The more sorrow and concern<br/>And so He turned to pleasure<br/>To folly and to cheer<br/>But still His laughter<br/>Tasted of His tears<br/><br/>Under the sun<br/>It was all vanity of vanities<br/>In wisdom or in wine<br/>He found futility<br/>In knowledge or in folly<br/>For the wise man or the fool<br/>Hopelessness will always be the rule<br/><br/>And yet there is a time<br/>For everything that&#x27;s under heaven<br/>A time to run, a time to stand and fight<br/>So in the face of cold despair<br/>No matter what seems right<br/>Remember, darkness drives us to the light<br/><br/>Under the sun<br/>True there is vanity of vanities<br/>But there is more to life<br/>There is security<br/>Remember your Creator<br/>In the days when you are young<br/>And He will be your hope<br/>Under the sun<br/>Under the sun<br/>True there is vanity of vanities<br/>But there is more to life<br/>There is security<br/>Remember your Creator<br/>In the days when you are young<br/>And He will be your hope<br/>Under the sun
