frozen in time, and captured by your beauty
none can compare, from the depth of the sea
to the rising of the sun, true breathe of clarity.
So take a breathe of something beautiful
and sing it to me for the whole word to see.
How can i stand, and not be moved
when words can't describe the awe of it all
the stars that light the sky, the wind that touches me
has never felt so free, true breathe of clarity.

3:11-14 He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end. I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live. That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil--this is the gift of God. I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that men will revere him.
5:2 Do not be quick with your mouth, do not be hasty in your heart to utter anything before God. God is in heaven and you are on earth, so let your words be few.
5:7 Much dreaming and many words are meaningless. Therefore stand in awe of God.
5:19 Moreover, when God gives any man wealth and possessions, and enables him to enjoy them, to accept his lot and be happy in his work--this is a gift of God.
8:15 So I commend the enjoyment of life, because nothing is better for a man under the sun than to eat and drink and be glad. Then joy will accompany him in his work all the days of the life God has given him under the sun.
8:17 then I saw all that God has done. No one can comprehend what goes on under the sun. Despite all his efforts to search it out, man cannot discover its meaning. Even if a wise man claims he knows, he cannot really comprehend it.
9:7 Go, eat your food with gladness, and drink your wine with a joyful heart, for it is now that God favors what you do.
9:9-10 Enjoy life with your wife, whom you love, all the days of this meaningless life that God has given you under the sun-- all your meaningless days. For this is your lot in life and in your toilsome labor under the sun. Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the grave, [fn] where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.
11:5 As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.
11:7-9 Light is sweet, and it pleases the eyes to see the sun.However many years a man may live, let him enjoy them all. But let him remember the days of darkness, for they will be many. Everything to come is meaningless.Be happy, young man, while you are young, and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth. Follow the ways of your heart and whatever your eyes see, but know that for all these things God will bring you to judgment.
This song is about acknowledging God's creation and the gift of life that God has given us. We see in verse 5:7 "Much dreaming and many words are meaningless. Therefore stand in awe of God." We can not understand or comprehend what the Lord has done, or add or take away to what God has done.
