Comments on 'Rock of Ages' |
- This was not originally a "christian" song. It was about a
man that saw the misery of slavery.
- I read a book and there they singed this song too.
i don't
understand all of the song
( i speak german)
but it must be a great song.
be blessed
- Excellent!
- God bless. Great song.
Any Christians add me.
- 4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days
shalt thou labour, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the Sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day, and hallowed it.
- Allmighty GOD is the source of all... And eternal Love...Be
praised His name with His Son Iesus Christus our Saviour and the Holy Spirit qui ex Patre et Filio procedit et per quem omnia facta sunt...
Our Father Who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy Name
Thy Kingdom come....
- The original words were beautiful, why change them?
- Sounds nice but i think the Def Leppard song is better.
- This is simply beautiful, Do you know if this choir has any
recorded Christmas music?
- There is also a Jewish hymn composed in Germany in the 13th
century called Rock of Ages or "Maoz Tsur". There are vids on youtube of it. It's a really long song. It is typically sung during Chanuka.
- so pure. so holy. sooo sweet to my ears. Thanks for posting.
Thank yu Jesus for i know who you are and what you have done for me. Thank you so much.
- nothing move my spirit but this hym it real touches my
heart.
- This is why I love LSB hymns. Amazing lyrics.
"Wash me
Savior or I die"
"Simply to thy Cross I cling"
- oh! so beautiful at 0:50 when the male tenors and basses
start. GORGEOUS!!
- hey is that one picture from 0:43 in the rockies??? it looks
VERY familiar :)
- Following on from last post 22 mins ago.
Settling in for a
long wait he has nothing to do but study the rock around him. It is a mighty cleft after all. Inspiration comes in a flash, as if from on high. Fumbling in his pockets for something on which to record the imagery that fires his imagination, he finds some playing cards. We must assume he has a pencil around his person, because he manages to squeeze a three verse hymn onto one side.
- Caught unawares by a sudden downpour, a lone figure takes
shelter in a mighty cleft of rock. The figure is the Reverend Augustus Montague Toplady, a zestful Calvinist preacher. The cleft is in the face of a large cliff of limestone, connected to Cheddar Gorge. Rain storms in this area can last for hours. Toplady must have been aware of this; his ministry lay in nearby Blagdon.
- very nice
- I agree. I didn't even know who sung this. But I thank God I
found this!
- Some beautiful voices, a great rendition. Thanks for
posting. It took quite a search to find this.
- Oh My God. Thank you so much for posting this. My Aunt
listens to this when she cleans for Sabbath and during Sabbth. This song is so awesome. I Love Jesus and this song does a lot for me. Amen and may God bless you. :)
- Nothing moves the spirit like a good ol' time hymn.
- Beautiful song, and beautifully done here.
Thank you.
God
Bless.
- Amen
- Dear all in Christ just to say one word May God bless you
all and use you more and more for his Glory name
God bless
