The scars on her eyes meant that Fanny Crosby would not see as others did. The rocky soil of Putnam county, New York, was good for little farming, yet many Puritan families eked out an existence there, bouyed by their extended families and their Christian faith. Into such a family was Frances Jane—"Fanny"—Crosby born on March 24, 1820.
The eyes of Fanny Crosby displayed the scars of an incompetent medical treatment, one that would render her sightless for life. Yet the light that illuminated this brave girl's soul was destined to electrify generations to come. While her father would be laid to rest in an unmarked grave, Fanny Crosby, the author of over 2,000 beloved hymns, would be forever eulogized—in her own words—by "Blessed Assurance," "Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross," "All the Way My Saviour Leads Me," "Sweet Hour of Prayer," and "To God Be the Glory"
