I think there's many a slaveholder'll get to Heaven. They don't know better. They acts up to the light they have.

As I lay so sick on my bed, from Christmas till March, I was always praying for poor ole master. 'Pears like I didn't do nothing but pray for ole master. 'Oh, Lord, convert ole master;' 'Oh, dear Lord, change dat man's heart, and make him a Christian.'

From Harriet Tubman

Lord, I'm going to hold steady on to You and You've got to see me through.

From Harriet Tubman

I never had anything good, no sweet, no sugar; and that sugar, right by me, did look so nice, and my mistress's back was turned to me while she was fighting with her husband, so I just put my fingers in the sugar bowl to take one lump, and maybe she heard me, for she turned and saw me. The next minute, she had the rawhide down.

From Harriet Tubman

Read my letter to the old folks, and give my love to them, and tell my brothers to be always watching unto prayer, and when the good old ship of Zion comes along, to be ready to step aboard.

From Harriet Tubman

I had two sisters carried away in a chain-gang - one of them left two children. We were always uneasy.
