Fanny Crosby's celebrated autobiography chronicles her life and
achievements writing Christian poetry and hymnals in amazing
quantity. Renowned as one of the 19th century's greatest hymn
writers and lyricists, Fanny Crosby was the victim of grave
misfortune during her infancy. As a baby only a few weeks old, her
eyes became inflamed - the doctor visited by her family suggested a
procedure to alleviate the symptoms, but it was a failure: Fanny
became completely and permanently blind. Despite this grave loss of
sight, the young Fanny proved a bright child and a capable student.
In particular she had a gift for words and was markedly devoted to
the Christian Lord. These two attributes would soon characterize
her rise to renown; as well as publishing well-received and
celebrated hymns, Fanny was diligent in accomplishing mission work
far from home.
