Originally published in 1983 after the convictions of the Wilmington Ten were overturned, Psalms from Prison was updated and re-released in 1994. Now in its third edition, this update to Psalms from Prison includes autobiographical reflections from Benjamin Chavis about the unjust imprisonment of the Wilmington Ten and the struggle for equal rights. On October 18, 1972, Benjamin Chavis and nine others (the famous Wilmington Ten) were wrongly convicted of having incited race riots. Chavis spent four years in jail—and it was in the flames of that injustice that these psalms were forged. The deep and abiding faith that sustains Chavis today can be found in these powerful prayers, now accompanied by autobiographical reflections in this third edition. Chavis’ psalms spoke to the issues of the African American struggle then . . . and they speak to those same issues today.

Savonarola s exposition or meditation on Psalm 51 (the Miserere) and Psalm 31 (In te, Domini, speravi) have not been printed in English during the twentieth century. This book makes that text available in modern English. The translator found the Loeb series, which printed the text and translation of classical Roman authors on facing pages, which is the best single help to acquire facility in reading Latin. Few such volumes exist to help students of post-classical Latin.

The title derives from the author being in prison and finding the mercy, grace, and love of Jesus Christ, his Lord and Savior. He used to write poems; then he started writing concerning God. The pastor of Jammin' for Jesus, Pastor Buddy Houser, asked him if he knew what a psalmist was. He told him no, and he had him look it up. He became the church psalmist for Grace Temple and has been writing for the Lord ever since. The title comes from a man locked up in prison, yet he still praises the Lord for His goodness. Even though in prison, God still loves us, and walking with Lord in prison is just as important inside as it is outside. The author would like his book to let his readers know that no matter what, no matter the situation, God still loves them; and thus, there is nothing we can do to hinder or stop His love. And no matter what their circumstances, remember that Jesus Christ died for them just as He did for everyone else. I love you all. In Jesus's name.
