Author Robert J. Morgan’s distinctive writing style tells the amazing story behind this beloved children’s hymn, written by Anna Warner in 1862. His book tells the story of two sisters- Susan and Anna Warner - who went from riches to rags, from the hustle and bustle of New York City to the isolation of a small island, and from a quiet ministry to young soldiers into the hearts of children worldwide. Including photos of the Warners' Revolutionary War-era home on Constitution Island, just offshore from West Point, this book explores the birth of this sweet song like never before. It also highlights stories about lives that have been changed by this simple, powerful refrain.
