Some of the most hopeful hymns written, we’re born out of human suffering. Most of us know the story behind “Amazing Grace,” and “It Is Well With My Soul,” but did you know about the blind author who penned ten thousand hymns, and influenced twenty-two presidents in her life time? Or the teacher whose back was broken by a student while teaching her class? What diseases and losses did they suffer, or wars effected their life? Which author lost everything in the Great Chicago Fire? This book is dedicated to those men and woman who wrote about how they lived their lives and how they found salvation through Jesus Christ. They stood in their faith during obstacles of storms, disease, tragedy, fire, depression, abuse, and financial loss.
