Here is the full script in case it's helpful. took a hot second of searching to set everything up, but now it's really easy to use. When you call the script inside an automation it has input fields just like if you're calling a built-in function like light.turn_on

For your specific use case though, it may be easier to just take advantage of the built-in Scenes function. You can use an "entity snapshot" with "Scene: Create" a scene of the current state of your "bad" lights when the power goes out, then "Activate" that scene, perhaps with a couple of seconds transition time to smooth things out as soon as power is restored.

I use a similar scene based function to create flashing colored light alerts based on certain conditions.

sequence:
  - repeat:
      for_each: "{{ lights }}"
      sequence:
        - variables:
            light_state: "{{states(repeat.item)}}"
            timescale: "{{states('input_number.timescale')}}"
        - if:
            - condition: template
              value_template: "{{light_state == 'on'}}"
          then:
            - metadata: {}
              data:
                brightness_pct: "{{target_brightness}}"
                transition: "{{transition_rate * timescale}}"
                kelvin: "{{color_temperature}}"
              target:
                entity_id: "{{repeat.item}}"
              action: light.turn_on
