Piano SOLO Version - Rock of Ages (Augustus Toplady)

This is a Piano SOLO Version of Augustus Toplady's famous hymnal Rock of Ages. I love this class him and I can't believe this song was orgianally written in the 1700s! Well I hope you enjoy this song as I had creating it. I also used some a new processor app and produced it a little differently so the audio was more even and not so low on the light and super loud on the heavy so hopefully that balanced it out. Let me know what you think and I'll hopefully have another song for you soon.

*"Rock of Ages" is a popular Christian hymn written by the Reverend Augustus Toplady in 1763 and first published in The Gospel Magazine in 1775.

Traditionally, it is held that Toplady drew his inspiration from an incident in the gorge of Burrington Combe in the Mendip Hills in England. Toplady, a preacher in the nearby village of Blagdon, was travelling along the gorge when he was caught in a storm. Finding shelter in a gap in the gorge, he was struck by the title and scribbled down the initial lyrics.[citation needed]

The fissure that is believed to have sheltered Toplady (51.3254°N 2.7532°W) is now marked as the "Rock of Ages", both on the rock itself and on some maps,[clarification needed] and is also reflected in the name of a nearby tea shop. The German translation is called "Fels des Heils".
