Marian Wright Edelman Prayer
“God, please stop injustice,
the killing of innocent children
by violence at home and in faraway lands.
God, please stop injustice,
The killing of innocent children
By poverty at home and abroad.
God, please stop injustice,
The killing of innocent child spirits
By vanity and greed in our land and others.
God, please stop injustice,
The assault on precious child dreams
By neglect and apathy near and far.
God, please stop injustice,
So our children may live
And love and laugh and play again.”
-Marian Wright Edelman
