Thanks, Laura, for requesting this wonderful Fanny Crosby hymn, My Savior First of All. Remember, if we posted one of her hymns here every day without fail, it would take some 23 years to post them all!
Oh–and for those of you whose hymnals are full of Springsteen and Tupac and Bob Dylan, the Church of Blasphemy is down at the bottom of the hill. Just turn left every time, and you’ll get there.
What a wonderful way to begin the day! Thank you Lee and Laura.
Would you add this one to the request list please, Lee – ‘Wonderful Words of Life’ by the Joslin Grove Choral Society
I can’t believe I haven’t used that one already. One of my favorites.
Thanks Lee! I love this song. Fanny Crosby was a remarkable woman and she wrote so many hymns that I love.
She wrote at least 8,500 hymns and maybe as many as 9,000.
