Sacred-lament-as-received-ordinance — the act of addressing GoD with grief as a form of devotion. Lament not as despair but as the posture of faith: you cannot lament to someone who is not there. The Narekatsi register: daring lips + humble heart + trembling soul + contrite spirit, held simultaneously. The liturgical-lament pole of the wound-cluster — the act of voicing grief to GoD as worship.
