The lords true house

“O Christ, have you seen the great cathedrals and buildings they have erected in your name?”

“Yes, but I am not that impressed it might surprise you to know. I prefer to live in the small homes of the suburban family. I find the folks there much more informal and easier to talk to.”

So you don’t go down to the pope’s place much!?

O yes of course I go there and I have seen the great cathedrals.

I’ll visit if I’m asked, but generally I prefer to watch prettier things.

O mind yourself, there’s an ant near your foot!

O what a beautiful creature it is.

I’m an outdoors kind of personality really.

The beautiful mountains and all the animals.

The glorious sea.

These are the places for me.
