Righteous Vassals
Immutable creatures that heaven tend
Excoriating evil, God's kingdom defend
Anthems of praise and adulation wend
Companions of eternal God their dividend
From divine footstool to earth descend
With harp and sword they attend
Righteousness and mirth portend
Corruption and vice to amend
With rouge spirits daily contend
Scouring earth's veil to apprehend
Profiteers and dictators that misery extend
To God's children without end
To the weak, downtrodden a friend
Comfort to the bereaved they lend
Answers to prayers they append
To the repenter, mercy will expend
