Im not a senior member but keep in mind that people have been using this book with fantastic success using the chants exactly as worded for three decades. If you would feel a lot more comfortable rewording them then go ahead but as an afterthought if you take a close inspection of the four gospels in the new testament of the bible you will see that Jesus's teachings on prayer are that ideally you should COMMAND God to answer your prayer; with RESPECT of course.
