Praise God! Is anyone out there familiar with her hymns? One of her most well known is "Blessed Assurance." In the church I grew up in we had such a nice hymnal where hers were a favorite in it. I found an excellent church produced documentary-play about her life. It features some of her best hymns. I saw it on YouTube recently and would highly recommend it. Very nicely done.
