Vanity Fair

"Vanity", says the preacher
I set my heart to be a seeker
Liquid myrrh drips from my fingers
Sweetly killing my urge to linger

Living in this world fully aware
We're passing through a vanity fair
Bold we escape the fowler's snare
Passing through this vanity fair

In my heart I said in measure
"Taste enjoyment, test our pleasure"
All the works my hands could manage
Under the sun gave no advantage

Living in this world fully aware
We're passing through a vanity fair
Bold we escape the fowler's snare
Passing through this vanity fair

Fleeing this world's vanity
We're learning life's reality
Pressed into his mold
Real life we behold

Living in this world fully aware
We're passing through a vanity fair
Bold we escape the fowler's snare
Passing through this vanity fair
Passing through this vanity fair
