Stephen J. Vattimo Poet Verse

Heart To Heart

I don't desire to dwell in beautiful temples 
   made by your hands

   I desire to dwell in every room of your heart

   I don't desire the blood of sacrificed animals
   or the good works of man

   I desire obedience to my commands

   I don't desire your empty religious practices

   I desire a heart that is on fire with love for God

   I don't desire to be visited only on Holy days
  
   I desire to fellowship with you every day

   This is why I laid my live down for you

   Silent Songs: written by Stephen J. Vattimo
