Welcome to the Fanny Crosby Blog

This blog is for the many fans of renowned hymnist Fanny Crosby. When I created the first webpage in 1996 about this special woman that was a student and teacher at the NY Institute for Special Education, I had no clue how much love there was out there for this woman. Her hymns still are sung and her efforts on this earth are still felt. What was one brief page is now a complete website at http://www.nyise.org/fanny/index.html that is always growing and expanding.

I am glad to finally have found a vehicle for other to express their faith and their passions for her hymns.
