The dynamic collection of inspired songs, including a memorable remake of Donny Hathaway's classic, "Someday We'll All Be Free," and a stunning rendition of the church favorite, "Great Is Thy Faithfulness", is the third project from the solo artist.

The event is part of the dedication of the memorial of Dr. King in the Nation's Capital.
