What profit all the labor here?
There’s nothing new for you and me!
Remember not the former things,
They’re all vanity!
Vanity! Vanity!
Vanity! Vanity!
’Tis chasing the wind,
It’s all vanity!
Man’s life is full of grief and pain:
Much wisdom bringeth misery!
Increasing knowledge addeth woe!
It’s all vanity!
Vanity! Vanity!
Vanity! Vanity!
’Tis chasing the wind,
It’s all vanity!
What good our pleasure and our wealth?
Though joys we have and family,
We’ll have our worries just the same!
It’s all vanity!
Vanity! Vanity!
Vanity! Vanity!
’Tis chasing the wind,
It’s all vanity!
Days of toil to gain and restless nights:
Though gained without calamity,
When death comes it is gone for aye!
It’s all vanity!
Vanity! Vanity!
Vanity! Vanity!
’Tis chasing the wind,
It’s all vanity!
Remember God in days of youth!
Fear Him, and such will be your gain!
With Him you will be satisfied,
For He is not vain!
Vanity! Vanity!
Vanity! Vanity!
’Tis chasing the wind,
It’s all vanity!
