Every Day and Hour (Fanny J. Crosby, 1875) | The Story Behind the Hymn

Описание: When composer William H. Doane sent a melody to Fanny J. Crosby in 1875 with a simple note — “Write on the theme: every day and hour” — he could never have known that it would inspire one of the most heartfelt prayers in hymn history.
From her quiet room in New York, blind hymn writer Fanny Crosby wrote:

“Savior, more than life to me,
Every day, every hour, let me feel Thy cleansing power.”

This episode of Story Behind the Hymns tells how Fanny’s blindness became the lens through which she saw God’s light most clearly. You’ll hear how her lifelong faith, Scripture memorization, and unshakable devotion gave birth to this hymn — a simple yet powerful prayer of daily abiding in Christ.

Discover the Scriptures that shaped its message:
Psalm 63:1–8 – “My soul clings to You.”
John 15:4–5 – “Abide in Me, and I in you.”

Whether you’re walking through challenges or simply yearning for deeper closeness with God, let this hymn remind you that Jesus’ love is not a one-time grace — it’s a moment-by-moment presence.
Whisper it with Fanny Crosby:
“Every day and every hour, let me feel Thy cleansing power.”
