Rock of Ages by PCN Diobu Parish Choir

A unique presentation of Reverend Augustus Montague Toplady's Rock of Ages by the Presbyterian Church of Nigeria, Diobu Parish Choir, Port Harcourt. This very personal hymn uses pronouns such as "I" and "me" rather than "we" and "our", focusing on individual salvation. Legend says that Toplady wrote the hymn during a stormy incident in England. While traveling along the gorge in Burrington Combe, he was caught in a fierce storm and took shelter in a gap in the gorge, where he wrote the original lyrics. Some disagree on whether the event actually occurred; nevertheless, the rock is now marked with a plaque that reads: “Rock of Ages: This rock derives its name from the well known hymn written about 1762 by the Rev A M Toplady who was inspired whilst sheltering in this cleft during a storm.”
