Fanny Crosby was blinded by a medical accident while she was still a baby. She grew up to be the author of some eight or nine thousand hymns. (Who counted them?)
This is one of them: Draw Me Nearer, sung by the Celebration Choir.

There is a couple of movies about Fanny, but they do not do her justice. We need a new one about her wondrous life.
She’s one of my heroes.
Never knew she was blind!
