"Featured here are the words of great historical figures like Frederick Douglass, Jupiter Hammon, and Martin Luther King, Jr., as well as such contemporary leaders as Jesse Jackson, Maya Angelou, and Marian Wright Edelman. Classic prayers like "Ere Sleep Comes Down to Soothe the Weary Eyes" and "Precious Lord, Take My Hand" appear alongside such modern devotions as "Grace at Mealtime," "Peace in the Community," and "Prayers for a Kwanzaa Celebration.""--BOOK JACKET. "There are prayers for welcoming God into your life, fighting loneliness, thankfulness for friends and family, confronting racial oppression, and living with illness. There are also prayers for celebrating special occasions, such as marriages, baptisms, and birthdays. Each prayer speaks to the heart of the African American experience, touching, comforting, and inspiring."--BOOK JACKET
