Lovely words indeed!!
I think Fanny Crosby was such a wonderful hymn writer. Apparently she wrote over 9,000 hymns!!!
An excerpt from a biography page says....
Although blinded by an illness at the age of 6 weeks, she never became bitter. One time a preacher sympathetically remarked, "I think it is a great pity that the Master did not give you sight when He showered so many other gifts upon you." She replied quickly, "Do you know that if at birth I had been able to make one petition, it would have been that I should be born blind?" "Why?" asked the surprised clergyman. "Because when I get to heaven, the first face that shall ever gladden my sight will be that of my Savior!"

One remarkable woman!!
Praise....thank you for reminding us of her.

best wishes, Yvonne
