Earthly riches are vain
Earthly wealth is vain
Earthly possessions are vain
Earthly accomplishments are vain
Earthly pursuits are vain
Earthly honors are vain
Earthly rewards are vain
Earthly praises are vain
Vanity of vanities.
Earthly intelligence is vain
Earthly wisdom is vain
Earthly philosophies are vain
Earthly philosophers are vain
Earthly advises are vain
Earthly advisors are vain
Vanity of vanities.
Earthly pride is vain
Earthly knowledge is vain
Earthly direction is vain
Earthly conceptions are vain
Earthly support is vain
Earthly supporters are vain
Vanity of vanities.
We came to this world with nothing
We shall leave this world with nothing
So everything not supported by God is vain
So everything without Christ's backing is vain
So everything done without the aid of the Holy Spirit is vain
Vanity of vanities..
