O if all were not vain
so very vain
our desires that bring us pain
still we roll around shamed
having no care for our name
degraded like noble creatures chained
by such simple and feinting .....
vices
o if only if only
we worked to rid ourselves
to better ourselves
instead of satisfying ourselves
To imitate Christ with all ourselves
only then would our world change
but one is always there and.....
entices
o if we stood strong
and fought to right wrongs
resisted temptation that enthrongs
our hearts soo restless and longed
for a peace that will never come to song
unless we live on God alone
and draw apart from this world
thrice
for the price of LIFE
for what is there? but Christ?
o how foolish our hearts are
how deceitful
and horrible
the truth of man's soul.
God save us all
it is for vanity that we shall fall
and vanity that we live by
