not untarnished, not unflawed,
~~but restored;
not unsullied, not unscarred,
~~but pruned, trained, not unfruitful;
wiser from the lesson, stronger from the poison,
~~reborn, remade, not ungrateful

Psalm 76
Why must Your Love suffer, Lord;
~~why offer Your Word on Earth to teeth of cruelty?
And why do You say it is the work of the Pure,
~~and prisoning the Perfect will set men free?

Psalm 75
My Lord is a wise Lord, wisdom born in the core, as surely as the heart envisions spring;
~~my King is a knowing King, knowledge risen from the root, as surely as the soul knows its way home.
~~my King is a knowing King, knowledge risen from the root, as surely as the soul knows its way home.

Psalm (my commander) 90
Be my commander, Lord;
~~be my commander and chief.
Men give orders,
~~but you give order to the world.
Men range mountains,
~~but you make the mountains to range.
Man’s might, with all his war, is in your power;
~~with all your power to do as you might, Lord, hear my prayer:
free the captives of the world;
~~free a world captive to war.
~~be my commander and chief.
Men give orders,
~~but you give order to the world.
Men range mountains,
~~but you make the mountains to range.
Man’s might, with all his war, is in your power;
~~with all your power to do as you might, Lord, hear my prayer:
free the captives of the world;
~~free a world captive to war.
